About 21 Barnes Close

It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68).
