About 68a

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

68a is an end-of-terrace house in Bristol (BS3 1DU). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 60 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–106 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
