About 5 Cheyne Close
5 Cheyne Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Bromley (BR2 8QA). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
