About 7 Buttercup Road

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

7 Buttercup Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB4 2GX). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band D.
