About 16 Browning Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B.

The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
