About 28 Doncaster Drive
28 Doncaster Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Northolt (UB5 4AY). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2018) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
