Overview

About 22 Birkdale Gardens

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

22 Birkdale Gardens is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Durham (DH1 2UJ). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
