About 8 Arnold Close
8 Arnold Close is a semi-detached house in Ribbleton, Preston, Preston (PR2 6DX). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
