About 8 Sandy Lane

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Sandy Lane is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lowton, Warrington, Warrington (WA3 1DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A.
