About 149 Dorset Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
149 Dorset Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Lambeth, London, London (SW8 1AL). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The property has an EV charger and underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
