Overview

About 6 Boswell Close

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

6 Boswell Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Royston, Barnsley, Barnsley (S71 4ST). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
