About 5 Norton Crescent

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

5 Norton Crescent is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birmingham (B9 5TB).

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.
