About 1 Essex Avenue
1 Essex Avenue is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sudbury (CO10 1YZ). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A.

The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
