About 242c
242c is an end-of-terrace house in London (W5 4RP). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 385 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 36 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (36–82 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (48 versus a best of 79). The latest certificate (April 2011) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
