About 16 Ainsdale Grove
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Ainsdale Grove is a semi-detached house in Stockport (SK5 6UF). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
