About 4 Downings Wood
4 Downings Wood is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Maple Cross, Rickmansworth, Rickmansworth (WD3 9TH). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
