About Fir Lodge
Fir Lodge is a five-bedroom detached house in Taunton (TA1 1EB). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
