Hilltop Barn is a detached house in Knowle Green, Preston, Preston (PR3 2YQ). It has a recorded floor area of 245 m² (around 2637 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
