The Firs is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Green Hammerton, York, York (YO26 8BS). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1050 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 61). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
