About Romsey Villa
Romsey Villa is a five-bedroom detached house in Preston, Weymouth, Weymouth (DT3 6DB). It has a recorded floor area of 172 m² (around 1851 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
