About 12 Thatchers Wood

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

12 Thatchers Wood is a four-bedroom detached house in Longstanton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 3BX). It has a recorded floor area of 188 m² (around 2021 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006.
