Overview

About 13 Josephs Road

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

13 Josephs Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU1 1DN). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump.

Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in June 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
