About 46a
46a is a three-bedroom detached house in Histon, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 9JL). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).
