Apartment 6, 1 River Street, Manchester, M1 5BB

Apartment 6 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Manchester (M1 5BB). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. At 61 m² this is the 10th smallest of 22 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 45–72 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since April 2012. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
