About 96 Shortheath Road
96 Shortheath Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Moira, Swadlincote, Swadlincote (DE12 6AL). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good.
