About 4 Bracken Court
4 Bracken Court is a semi-detached house in Barnsley (S70 3NY). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 739 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (April 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.
