About 7 Fernlea Avenue

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since November 2010.
