Overview

About 5 Ponsonby Terrace

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

5 Ponsonby Terrace is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Derby (DE1 1DT). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2025 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump.

It hasn't traded since June 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £119,000 sits 981.8% above the 2000 sale of £11,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£20/sq ft) was about 86.5% below the postcode norm. At 50 m² it's 18.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (61 m² median across 20 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs).
