1 Foundry Drive is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Charlestown, St. Austell, St Austell (PL25 3BS). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (March 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.
