Overview

About 1 Drake Avenue

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Drake Avenue is an end-of-terrace house in Bath (BA2 5NX). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2012. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
