Overview

About 8 Hopton Road

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

8 Hopton Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hereford (HR1 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good.
