Get started36 The Lye is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Seend, Melksham, Melksham (SN12 6PA). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.
