About Cross Green House
Cross Green House is a detached house in Hitcham, Ipswich, Ipswich (IP7 7NT). It has a recorded floor area of 408 m² (around 4392 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on oil.
