About 46 Gainsborough Avenue
46 Gainsborough Avenue is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oldham (OL8 1AH). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
