165 Bedford Road is an end-of-terrace house in Bootle (L20 2DR). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1658 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 66), a 2-band jump.
