Overview

About 17 Newton Drive

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

17 Newton Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Greenmount, Bury, Bury (BL8 4DH). It has a recorded floor area of 249 m² (around 2680 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 249 m² the property is well over the postcode median (104 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015.
