About 52 Chestnut Road
52 Chestnut Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Walsall (WS3 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
