Overview

About Flat 1 3

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

Flat 1 3 is a semi-detached house in Chesterton, Cambridge, Cambridge (CB4 1NL). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
