Overview

About 1 Simmerson Drive

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

1 Simmerson Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Carlisle (CA1 3HZ). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2026) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £204,000 is 28.7% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 19.5% below the postcode norm. Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
