Overview

About 8 Glenlea Drive

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

8 Glenlea Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Manchester (M20 5QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2022) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

At 124 m² the property is well over the postcode median (82 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £538,000 sits 144.5% above the 2012 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£165/sq ft) was about 21.7% below the postcode norm. Last sold in April 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
