Overview

About 31 Elmfield Drive

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

31 Elmfield Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cottingham (HU16 4AR). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1587 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (112 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £268,000 is 24.7% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£135/sq ft) was about 23.5% below the postcode norm.
