About The Old Mead
The Old Mead is a nine-bedroom detached house in Brington, Huntingdon, Huntingdon (PE28 5AE). It has a recorded floor area of 344 m² (around 3706 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include outbuildings, attached land beyond the plot and a basement. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
