About 74a

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a C (score 73).

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
