Overview

About 17 Countess Road

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

17 Countess Road is a mid-terrace house in Manchester (M20 6RS). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
