About The Lamp House
The Lamp House is a four-bedroom detached house in Tadworth (KT20 5SF). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1159 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71).
