About Flat 3
Flat 3 is a mid-terrace house in Harrogate (HG1 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 31 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (31–37 m²). On EPC score it ranks first in the building (75 versus a worst of 72). The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since July 2016. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
