About 55 Upton Road

It has a recorded floor area of 204 m² (around 2196 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78).
