Overview

About 3 Birch Avenue

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

3 Birch Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR6 7AR). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
