Overview

About 28 Elms Road

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

28 Elms Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Coton-In-The-Elms, Swadlincote, Swadlincote (DE12 8HD). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £360,000 is 12.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£220/sq ft) was about 25.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold June 2021 for £320,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
