About 1 Holywell Avenue

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

1 Holywell Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Whitley Bay (NE26 3AH). It has a recorded floor area of 251 m² (around 2702 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in August 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
