Overview

About 8 Dovecote Lane

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

8 Dovecote Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Credenhill, Hereford, Hereford (HR4 7FA). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 135 m² it's 15.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (117 m² median across 7 EPCs). Across 1999–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £399,000 is 34.8% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 30% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
