13 Birchwood Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Scunthorpe (DN16 3HP). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump.
