Overview

About 1 Forest Road

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

1 Forest Road is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Kingswood, Bristol, Bristol (BS15 8EG). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2014) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 5 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Very Good.
