Overview

About Apartment 12

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

It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2024) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. The rating has held steady at B across 2 certificates since March 2014.
