Overview

About 18 Dorchester Road

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

18 Dorchester Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bristol (BS7 0LA). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
