About 22 Oak Close
22 Oak Close is an end-of-terrace house in Tipton (DY4 0AY). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A.

Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
