Overview

About 17 Darwin Avenue

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

17 Darwin Avenue is a semi-detached house in Allenton, Derby, Derby (DE24 9JB). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Darwin Avenue is modelled from its 48 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DE24 9JB. 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 17 Darwin Avenue. 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 17 Darwin Avenue was lodged in December 2013 at band E and expired in December 2023, 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 17 Darwin Avenue. 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DE24 9JB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Darwin Avenue is in council tax band A. 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.
