Overview

About 21 The Close

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

21 The Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in King's Lynn (PE31 8BS). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
