About 55 57

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

55 57 is an end-of-terrace house in Horsham (RH12 4BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in February 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.
