About 4 Tennyson Avenue
4 Tennyson Avenue is a mid-terrace house in Birkenhead (CH42 2DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
