About 7a

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

7a is a detached house in Blacon, Chester, Chester (CH1 5NU). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 91), a 2-band jump.
