About The Manse

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

The Manse is a detached house in Iden Green, Cranbrook, Cranbrook (TN17 4HP). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
