About 39a
39a is a mid-terrace house in Chaddesden, Derby, Derby (DE21 4LX). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 81 m² this is the 10th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–330 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top.

Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 is 49.4% below the 2021 sale of £255,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.

That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
