Overview

About 1 Council House

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

1 Council House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Algarkirk, Boston, Boston (PE20 2LH). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since November 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
