About 2 Fergus Road
2 Fergus Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Islington, London, London (N5 1JS). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

7 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include tree works, an extension, new windows and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision.
