About 5 Manor Close
5 Manor Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Harston, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB22 7QF). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
