About 72a
72a is an end-of-terrace house in Ainsdale, Southport, Southport (PR8 3HW). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
