About 32 Lime Grove
32 Lime Grove is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hoole, Chester, Chester (CH2 3HW). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft.
