Overview

About 26 Castle Drive

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

26 Castle Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in South Cave, Brough, Brough (HU15 2ES). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2025) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in May 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 sits 52.5% above the 2009 sale of £160,000. At 79 m² it's 29.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (113 m² median across 32 EPCs).
