About 4 Wattville Avenue
4 Wattville Avenue is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Handsworth, Birmingham, Birmingham (B21 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2011 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
