Overview

About 42 Heather Lea Avenue

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

42 Heather Lea Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in Sheffield (S17 3DL). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1127 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 45), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since September 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 105 m² it sits well below the postcode median (150 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £510,000 sits 61.3% above the 2010 sale of £316,250. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 42 Heather Lea Avenue is modelled from its 105 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in S17 3DL. 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 42 Heather Lea Avenue. 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 42 Heather Lea Avenue was lodged in June 2010 at band G and expired in June 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to 42 Heather Lea Avenue. 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 3DL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
42 Heather Lea Avenue is in council tax band E. 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.
