About 8 Vernon Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Vernon Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Nuthall, Nottingham, Nottingham (NG16 1AR). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 3 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, lighting went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 66), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 99 m² it's 27.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (78 m² median across 22 EPCs).

Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1997–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £295,000 is 31.1% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£211/sq ft) was about 28.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 8 Vernon Drive is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NG16 1AR. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 8 Vernon 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 8 Vernon Drive was lodged in July 2014 at band F and expired in July 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 8 Vernon 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from NG16 1AR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Vernon 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.
