About 8 Robert Close
8 Robert Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Unstone, Dronfield, Dronfield (S18 4DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
