About Flat 1
Flat 1 is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wem, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY4 5DG). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows a G (score 11), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
