Overview

About 2 Barmer Cottages

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

2 Barmer Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in King's Lynn (PE31 8SP). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since June 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
