About 2a

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

2a is an end-of-terrace house in Waltham Forest, London, London (E17 9JN). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2009. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
