Overview

About Driftwood House

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

Driftwood House is a four-bedroom detached house in Alvington, Lydney, Lydney (GL15 6BA). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 129 m² the property is well over the postcode median (48 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £378,000 is 25.6% above the 2021 sale price. Last sale on file: £301,000 in December 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
