Overview

About 6 Orchid Drive

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

6 Orchid Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Farndon, Newark, Newark (NG24 3TX). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 821 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Held since April 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. Today's modelled estimate of £215,000 sits 69.3% above the 2009 sale of £127,000. At 76 m² it's 22.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (99 m² median across 28 EPCs).
