About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a mid-terrace house in Doncaster (DN1 2LX). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 40 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 16–237 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 6 units on file. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 2004, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. Across 2001–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 13% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £298,000 is 14.6% above the 2004 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£604/sq ft) was about 899.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Flat 1 is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DN1 2LX. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for Flat 1. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Flat 1 was lodged in May 2011 at band D and expired in May 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 1. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DN1 2LX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 1 is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
