About 3 Northfield Road
3 Northfield Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Taunton (TA1 1XE). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 97 m² this is the 6th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 57–244 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to A, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (48 versus a best of 97). The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since December 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£233/sq ft) was about 20.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: July 2019 at £243,100.
