About 3 Dacre Road

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

3 Dacre Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Eastbourne (BN21 1RB). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (April 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump.
