How the estimate is made

The estimate for 1 Cambridge Drive is modelled from its 135 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in M34 2LY. 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.

Overview

About 1 Cambridge Drive

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

1 Cambridge Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Denton, Manchester, Manchester (M34 2LY). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since December 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 sits 77.8% above the 2009 sale of £174,950. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 1 Cambridge Drive is modelled from its 135 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in M34 2LY. 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 1 Cambridge 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 1 Cambridge Drive was lodged in June 2009 at band D and expired in June 2019, 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. 2 applications are matched to 1 Cambridge 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 4 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 44 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from M34 2LY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Cambridge Drive 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.
