About 7b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7b is a detached house in Kingswear, Dartmouth, Dartmouth (TQ6 0BN). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. At 67 m² this is the 7th smallest of 13 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–114 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (45 versus a best of 67). The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2015. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
