About 2 Vernon Street
2 Vernon Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Barnsley (S71 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
