About 5 Trafford Way
5 Trafford Way is a detached house in Beckenham (BR3 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 236 m² (around 2538 sq ft) and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2009) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
