About 1 Fleece Cottages
1 Fleece Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Harston, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 7NX). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views, attached land beyond the plot and a basement. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
