About 12a
12a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Shrewsbury (SY2 5BY). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88).
