About 6 Orchard Close
6 Orchard Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Ockbrook, Derby, Derby (DE72 3RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 672 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 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 61). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £255,000 sits 56.7% above the 2009 sale of £162,750. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).
