15 Canberra Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Bassingbourn, Royston, Royston (SG8 5JF). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1025 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2011) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.
