Old Merralls is a detached house in Brasted, Westerham, Westerham (TN16 1LP). It has a recorded floor area of 235 m² (around 2530 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since March 2012.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
