About 41b

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

41b is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lewisham, London, London (SE4 1DT). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
