About 1 Bromford Drive
1 Bromford Drive is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birmingham (B36 8TD). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
