About 16 Commonwealth Avenue
16 Commonwealth Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hayes (UB3 2PL). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 789 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump.
