Overview

About 17 Orchard Road

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

17 Orchard Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Skidby, Cottingham, Cottingham (HU16 5TL). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1203 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

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. Today's modelled estimate of £212,000 sits 69.6% above the 2009 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£104/sq ft) was about 25.7% below the postcode norm.
