About 5 Birchwood Close

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

5 Birchwood Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Sutton In Ashfield (NG17 3EZ). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1481 sq ft) and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71).
