Overview

About 28 Vestry Road

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

28 Vestry Road is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Oakwood, Derby, Derby (DE21 2BL). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (May 2019) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since January 1998, a hold of 28 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 £123,000 sits 423.4% above the 1998 sale of £23,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£57/sq ft) was about 62.3% below the postcode norm. At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (59 m² across 21 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
