About 17 Birchwood Gardens

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

It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2025) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good.
