About 87 Purewell

It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Poor.
