About 36 Castlefield
36 Castlefield is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ambleside (LA22 9BQ). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.
