Overview

About 17 Rycroft Road

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

17 Rycroft Road is an end-of-terrace house in Hemington, Derby, Derby (DE74 2RE). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 388 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 36 m² it sits well below the postcode median (113 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £142,000 sits 373.3% above the 1995 sale of £30,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 52.8% below the postcode norm.
