Overview

About 16 Westbourne Road

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

16 Westbourne Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sunderland (SR1 3SQ). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a C (score 70). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
