Overview

About 16 Lindens Drive

16 Lindens Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 2AQ).

Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
