About 2 Castlesteads Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Castlesteads Drive is a semi-detached house in Carlisle (CA2 7XE). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B.

The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 1996–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £160,000 sits 128.6% above the 2012 sale of £70,000.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Castlesteads Drive is modelled from its 68 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CA2 7XE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Castlesteads Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

The latest one for 2 Castlesteads Drive was lodged in January 2014 at band D and expired in January 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
