Overview

About 2 Birch Close

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

2 Birch Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Wessington, Alfreton, Alfreton (DE55 6EB). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since April 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 sits 304.4% above the 1997 sale of £68,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£57/sq ft) was about 72.3% below the postcode norm. At 110 m² it's 27.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (86 m² median across 5 EPCs).
