3 Rainham Gardens, Alvaston, Derby, DE24 0DJ
About 3 Rainham Gardens
3 Rainham Gardens is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Alvaston, Derby, Derby (DE24 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £243,000 sits 94.4% above the 2014 sale of £125,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 92 m² it's 19.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 8 EPCs). Last sold in April 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
