About 8 Highfield Road

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

8 Highfield Road is a mid-terrace house in Doncaster (DN1 2LA). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump.
