About 17 Hilary Drive
17 Hilary Drive is a detached house in Wolverhampton (WV3 7NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
