About 20 Main Road
20 Main Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sidestrand, Cromer, Cromer (NR27 0LS). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.

Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
