About 17 Sorrel Drive
17 Sorrel Drive is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Kingsbury, Tamworth, Tamworth (B78 2PE). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2012.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
