Overview

About 3 Orchard Close

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

3 Orchard Close is a detached house in Ockbrook, Derby, Derby (DE72 3RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 763 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64). 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. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £299,000 sits 57.4% above the 2009 sale of £190,000. At 71 m² it's 20.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
