About 5 Castle Close
5 Castle Close is a semi-detached house in Cawood, Selby, Selby (YO8 3SY). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. Main heating runs on oil.
