About 27a
27a is a four-bedroom detached house in Chippenham (SN14 0BE). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78).
