About Ashcombe
Ashcombe is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Totnes (TQ9 5AG). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2016) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in December 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 92). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
