Overview

About Portway House

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

Portway House is a semi-detached house in Callow, Hereford, Hereford (HR2 8BS). It has a recorded floor area of 151 m² (around 1625 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2012 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity.
