About 248 Halstead Road

It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2015 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
