About 21 Finchcroft Lane

It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1154 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2010) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump.
