About 17a
17a is a semi-detached house in Rochdale (OL16 1UG). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 3-band jump.
