Overview

About 12 Sunnyside

12 Sunnyside is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cambridge (CB5 8SG). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.
