Overview

About 27 Plantation Drive

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

27 Plantation Drive is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Newsome, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD4 7QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 50 m² this is the 38th smallest of 53 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–102 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (April 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2007–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at -3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £103,000 sits 71.7% above the 2015 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£111/sq ft) was about 40.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Last sold in May 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

How 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 27 Plantation Drive is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HD4 7QJ. 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 27 Plantation Drive. 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 27 Plantation Drive was lodged in April 2014 at band D and expired in April 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 27 Plantation Drive. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HD4 7QJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
27 Plantation Drive 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.
