About 1 Ellwood Close
1 Ellwood Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Isleham, Ely, Ely (CB7 5RN). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2008.
