About Yokohama
Yokohama is a two-bedroom detached house in Romford (RM3 0AN). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 62), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
