About 5 Algarth Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Algarth Road is a five-bedroom detached house in York (YO31 1EZ). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70).
