2 Furness Avenue is a detached house in Simonstone, Burnley, Burnley (BB12 7SU). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 98), a 4-band jump.
