About 34a

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

34a is a semi-detached house in Waltham Forest, London, London (E17 6QT). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60).
