About 6 The Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
6 The Drive is a detached house in Roundhay, Leeds, Leeds (LS8 1JF). It has a recorded floor area of 369 m² (around 3972 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in January 2017 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since May 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 369 m² the property is well over the postcode median (205 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £1,337,000 sits 349.4% above the 2001 sale of £297,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 58.1% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 6 The Drive is modelled from its 369 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LS8 1JF. 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 6 The 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 6 The Drive was lodged in August 2021 at band D and is valid until August 2031. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 6 The 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 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LS8 1JF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 6 The Drive is in council tax band G. 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.
