Get started1 Waterworks Cottages is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Boxley, Maidstone, Maidstone (ME14 3EB). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D.

When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
