About Highcroft
Highcroft is a five-bedroom detached house in Attleborough (NR17 1AE). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a G (score 3), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it F (March 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot.
