About This Property
This terraced maisonette is located in SIDCUP, DA14 4AP. The property offers 53m² (570 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. With an EPC rating of D (67/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (78/100).
