About 25 West Common Lane
25 West Common Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Scunthorpe (DN17 1DR). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
