About 8 Balmoral Drive
8 Balmoral Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Methley, Leeds, Leeds (LS26 9LE). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1093 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70).

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 44.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008.
