About 26 Merton Street

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

26 Merton Street is a mid-terrace house in Burnley (BB12 0DG). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.
