About 3 Birch Street
3 Birch Street is an end-of-terrace house in Windermere (LA23 1EG). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 723 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56).
