About 80 The Drive
80 The Drive is a mid-terrace house in Beckenham (BR3 1EG). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1050 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70).
