About 24 Second Avenue

It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2009.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on smokeless coal.
