About 1 Burlington Road
1 Burlington Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Southport (PR8 4RX). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1690 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a G (score 17), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it F (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
