About Margarets Court
Margarets Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Ilkley (LS29 8DY). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 95 m² this is the 4th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in Margarets Court, where floor areas span 62–200 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 95 m² it sits well below the postcode median (151 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
