About 2 Laburnham Cottages
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Laburnham Cottages is a semi-detached house in Aldeby, Beccles, Beccles (NR34 0BL). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since March 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 109), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
