About 28 Lorne Road
28 Lorne Road is a six-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southsea (PO5 1RR).

The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
