Overview

About 23 Station Road

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

23 Station Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Swavesey, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 4QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C.

When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.
