About 136 The Avenue
136 The Avenue is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in West Wickham (BR4 0EA). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2018) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£171/sq ft) was about 50.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003.
