10 Rixon Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sturminster Newton (DT10 1BS). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2011.
