About Allerford Lake House

It has a recorded floor area of 182 m² (around 1959 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since July 2014.
