34a is a property in Kirkby Stephen (CA17 4QW). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 610 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity.
