About 6 Ruskin Road
6 Ruskin Road is a three-bedroom detached house in New Costessey, Norwich, Norwich (NR5 0LL). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1258 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.
Untraded for 28 years, with the last transfer in December 1997. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
