About 18 Ferndale Close

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

18 Ferndale Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Coal Aston, Dronfield, Dronfield (S18 3BR). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor.
