Overview

About 1 Melrose Road

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

1 Melrose Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Bishop Monkton, Harrogate, Harrogate (HG3 3RH). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78).
