1 Alma Wood Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Chorley (PR7 2FR). It has a recorded floor area of 175 m² (around 1884 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
