About Alms Cottage

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

Alms Cottage is a detached house in Lympsham, Weston-Super-Mare, Weston Super Mare (BS24 0DX). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (April 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.
