About 6 Lichfield Cottages

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

6 Lichfield Cottages is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Kingsbury, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 2LW). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
