About 5 The Limes

It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1115 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67).
