How the estimate is made
The estimate for 7b is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DN17 1RW. 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.

About 7b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7b is a detached house in Scunthorpe (DN17 1RW). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since December 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1996–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £144,000 is 15.2% above the 2005 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 49.4% 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 7b is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DN17 1RW. 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 7b. 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 7b was lodged in May 2015 at band D and expired in May 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 7b. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DN17 1RW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 7b is in council tax band C. 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.
