Overview

About Ground Floor Flat

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

Ground Floor Flat is a semi-detached house in Birmingham (B17 9LT). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
