About 18 Alverton Drive

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

18 Alverton Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Bishops Cleeve, Cheltenham, Cheltenham (GL52 8TD). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D.

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
