About 3a
3a is a mid-terrace house in Ambleside (LA22 0AB). It has a recorded floor area of 28 m² (around 301 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. At 28 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (28–132 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to D across 3 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (May 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
