About 17 Firtree Close

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

17 Firtree Close is a semi-detached house in Acomb, York, York (YO24 4EU). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
