About 17 Bracken Drive
17 Bracken Drive is a two-bedroom detached house in Lydney (GL15 5AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £281,000 sits 60.6% above the 2013 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 30.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in June 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. At 75 m² it's 21.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (96 m² median across 11 EPCs).
