About Green Diamond

The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in February 2016 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity.

The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony.
