About 11 The Drive

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

11 The Drive is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in Beckenham (BR3 1EE). It has a recorded floor area of 151 m² (around 1625 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a C (score 71).

Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
