About 33 Drinkstone Road

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

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
