About 17 Alfred Street
17 Alfred Street is a semi-detached house in Northwich (CW8 1DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 3-band jump.
