Overview

About 19 The Dovecote

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

19 The Dovecote is a semi-detached house in Horsley, Derby, Derby (DE21 5BS). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £259,000 sits 67.1% above the 2009 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 15.5% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
