About Port St James

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

It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1080 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. At 100 m² this is the 16th smallest of 20 units on EPC record in Port St James, where floor areas span 83–150 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (40 versus a best of 82). The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
