Overview

About 22 Princess Drive

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

22 Princess Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sandbach (CW11 1BS). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 597 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. Across 2002–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 30.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 sits 60% above the 2004 sale of £145,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£243/sq ft) was about 24.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2010. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 55 m² it's 24% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (73 m² median across 20 EPCs).
