Get started9 Ladygrove Mews is a two-bedroom property in Preston, Hitchin, Hitchin (SG4 7SA). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft). Tenure is freehold. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. At 120 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 71–159 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (86 versus a worst of 67). The latest certificate (July 2014) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
