About 7 Towngate

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

7 Towngate is a detached house in Silkstone, Barnsley, Barnsley (S75 4SW). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
