About 18 Queens Drive
18 Queens Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sandbach (CW11 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1067 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a G (score 10), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 56), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in October 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
