About 3 Seaview Cottages

3 Seaview Cottages is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Abbotsham, Bideford, Bideford (EX39 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 989 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 41). Main heating runs on oil.
