About 31 Chestnut Close
31 Chestnut Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Frome (BA11 2TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72).
