About 70 Bridwell Road

70 Bridwell Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL5 1AE). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2018) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump.
