Overview

About 55 Brackens Lane

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

55 Brackens Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Alvaston, Derby, Derby (DE24 0AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 155 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £344,000 sits 67.8% above the 2010 sale of £205,000.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 55 Brackens Lane is modelled from its 155 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DE24 0AQ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 55 Brackens Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 55 Brackens Lane was lodged in August 2016 at band E and expired in August 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 55 Brackens Lane. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DE24 0AQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
55 Brackens Lane is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
