Overview

About 21 Elmfield Drive

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

21 Elmfield Drive is a semi-detached house in Cottingham (HU16 4AR). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 137 m² it's 22.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (112 m² median across 15 EPCs). Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £280,000 is 36.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 21.5% below the postcode norm.
