Overview

About 7 Melbourne Avenue

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

7 Melbourne Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wrenthorpe, Wakefield, Wakefield (WF2 0LT). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 602 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72).
