About 8 Stow Road
8 Stow Road is a two-bedroom detached house in King's Lynn (PE34 3BT). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 598 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a G (score 6), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 45), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
