About 19 Merton Road
19 Merton Road is a semi-detached house in Histon, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB24 9JW). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 778 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59).
