About Garsand
Garsand is a semi-detached house in Kirkby Stephen (CA17 4QL). It has a recorded floor area of 174 m² (around 1873 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
