About 20 Beechwood Drive

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

20 Beechwood Drive is a semi-detached house in Royton, Oldham, Oldham (OL2 5XR). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 917 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71).
