160a is a mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL2 1AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66).
