About 41 Underdown Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 830 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56).
