About 1 Violet Croft
1 Violet Croft is a four-bedroom detached house in Tipton (DY4 0DB). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 73). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86).
