About 522 Gorton Road

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

522 Gorton Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Stockport (SK5 6QU). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
