About The Villa
The Villa is a detached house in Newborough, Burton-On-Trent, Burton On Trent (DE13 8SH). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in August 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on wood chips. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
