About 51 Merthyr Road

At 53 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (53–139 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72).
