Overview

About 28 Brook Road

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

28 Brook Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Borrowash, Derby, Derby (DE72 3FW). It has a recorded floor area of 191 m² (around 2056 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 191 m² the property is well over the postcode median (98 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £504,000 is 15.9% above the 2021 sale price.

That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
