About 74a

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

74a is a three-bedroom detached house in Northam, Bideford, Bideford (EX39 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1062 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2011) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69).
