About 22b
22b is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southsea (PO5 3JL). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 166 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (17–166 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 54 units on file. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
