Overview

About 1 Cardington Drive

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

1 Cardington Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Shrewsbury (SY1 3HD). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 4-band jump.
