About 6 Farcroft Avenue
6 Farcroft Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Birmingham (B21 8AA). It has a recorded floor area of 119 m² (around 1281 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
