About 2a
2a is a two-bedroom detached house in Greenmount, Bury, Bury (BL8 4DY). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 880 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 64), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
