About 8 Cavendish House

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

8 Cavendish House is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Guildford (GU1 4AY). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B.
