About 5 Cambridge Road
5 Cambridge Road is a detached house in Newton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 7PL). It has a recorded floor area of 222 m² (around 2390 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity.
