Overview

About 16 Handford Court

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

16 Handford Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Derby (DE1 1GX). It has a recorded floor area of 34 m² (around 366 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2016. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. At 34 m² this is the 6th smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–67 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 33 units on file.

It hasn't traded since August 1997, a hold of 29 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 £108,000 sits 300% above the 1997 sale of £27,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£74/sq ft) was about 19.4% below the postcode norm.
