About 16 Kew Road
16 Kew Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Southport (PR8 4HH). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump.
