About 1 Dover Close
1 Dover Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Greenmount, Bury, Bury (BL8 4EE). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66).
