About 31a
31a is a semi-detached house in Guildford (GU1 2AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 212 m² (around 2287 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2011) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
