Overview

About The Orchards

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

The Orchards is a semi-detached house in Cononley, Keighley, Keighley (BD20 8PE). It has a recorded floor area of 215 m² (around 2314 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1983-1990. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 6 certificates since February 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 215 m² it's 20.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (179 m² median across 21 EPCs). Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 21.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £623,000 is 27.1% above the 2007 sale price.
