About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a mid-terrace house in Kensington And Chelsea, London, London (W8 4AA). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. At 71 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 69–86 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (61 versus a best of 74). The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
