How the estimate is made
The estimate for 4 Scotton Drive is modelled from its 133 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LN6 0BH. 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.

About 4 Scotton Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Scotton Drive is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lincoln (LN6 0BH). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2012) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The latest certificate is from March 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 16.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £157,000 sits 61% above the 2012 sale of £97,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£68/sq ft) was about 45.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in April 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years.

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 Scotton Drive is modelled from its 133 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LN6 0BH. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 4 Scotton Drive. 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 Scotton Drive was lodged in March 2012 at band D and expired in March 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 4 Scotton Drive. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LN6 0BH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 Scotton Drive is in council tax band A. 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.
