About 98a
98a is a one-bedroom detached house in Tarring, Worthing, Worthing (BN14 7NB). It has a recorded floor area of 28 m² (around 305 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.
