About Lynbern
Lynbern is a four-bedroom detached house in Cantley, Norwich, Norwich (NR13 3SQ). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 3 certificates since July 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 64), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
