About Fernbank
Fernbank is a semi-detached house in Liverpool (L14 0JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump.
