About 4 Back Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Back Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Scothern, Lincoln, Lincoln (LN2 2WP). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1067 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since February 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. 6 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 is 38.9% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 28.9% below the postcode norm. At 99 m² it's 18.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (121 m² median across 3 EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 4 Back Lane is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LN2 2WP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 4 Back Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 4 Back Lane was lodged in October 2008 at band E and expired in October 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to 4 Back Lane. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LN2 2WP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 Back Lane is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
