About 25 Watkins Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
25 Watkins Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Prestwich, Manchester, Manchester (M25 0DR). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 417 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (39–133 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 22 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average.
