About 5 Forester Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

5 Forester Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Derby (DE1 1PP). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
