About 5 Leyton Drive
5 Leyton Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bury (BL9 9SL). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1071 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £237,000 is 43.1% above the 2009 sale price.
