About 5 Kerwin Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Kerwin Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Sheffield (S17 3DF). It has a recorded floor area of 242 m² (around 2605 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in August 1997. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 242 m² the property is well over the postcode median (145 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £857,000 sits 503.5% above the 1997 sale of £142,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£55/sq ft) was about 77.8% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, partial demolition and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 5 Kerwin Close is modelled from its 242 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in S17 3DF. 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 5 Kerwin Close. 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 5 Kerwin Close was lodged in February 2016 at band C and expired in February 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. 2 applications are matched to 5 Kerwin Close. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S17 3DF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Kerwin Close is in council tax band F. 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.
