17 Birchvale Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Romiley, Stockport, Stockport (SK6 4LD). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1658 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 3-band jump.

It hasn't traded since December 1998, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement.
