About 16 Derwent Drive

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

16 Derwent Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bury (BL9 9LS). It has a recorded floor area of 145 m² (around 1561 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in December 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since.

Across 2000–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 sits 171.7% above the 2013 sale of £92,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£59/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm. Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
