Get started1 Bower Gardens is a two-bedroom detached house in Maldon (CM9 6HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
16 planning records sit against the property, 9 approved, 1 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include tree works, an extension, a loft conversion and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision.
