About The Cottage
The Cottage is a detached house in Thurne, Great Yarmouth, Great Yarmouth (NR29 3AP). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in July 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
