About 7 Canford Court

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2009.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
