About 81 New Street
81 New Street is a four-bedroom detached house in Chippenham, Ely, Ely (CB7 5QF). It has a recorded floor area of 145 m² (around 1561 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 94), a 4-band jump.
