Overview

About 39 Hereford Drive

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

39 Hereford Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Prestwich, Manchester, Manchester (M25 0AG). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2016) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (May 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 3-band jump.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 39 Hereford Drive is modelled from its 112 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in M25 0AG. 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 39 Hereford 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 39 Hereford Drive was lodged in October 2016 at band F and expired in October 2026, 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 39 Hereford 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 5 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 39 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from M25 0AG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
39 Hereford Drive is in council tax band D. 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.
