About Birchwood

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

Birchwood is a detached house in Copsale, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 6QW). It has a recorded floor area of 169 m² (around 1819 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
