About 28 Hopwell Road
28 Hopwell Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Draycott, Derby, Derby (DE72 3NH). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1294 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 46). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 6 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. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 is 44.7% above the 2009 sale price.
