About 5 Phoenix Row
5 Phoenix Row is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Witton Park, Bishop Auckland, Bishop Auckland (DL14 0DF). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
