Overview

About 5 Vicarage Lane

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

5 Vicarage Lane is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Dore, Sheffield, Sheffield (S17 3GX). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. At 126 m² this is the 10th smallest of 17 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–522 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in April 2018 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 126 m² it's 20% larger than the typical home in the postcode (105 m² median across 16 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs). 2 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Last sold in June 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years. Today's modelled estimate of £511,000 is 27.8% above the 2018 sale price.

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 5 Vicarage Lane is modelled from its 126 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in S17 3GX. 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 Vicarage Lane. 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 Vicarage Lane was lodged in July 2026 at band C and is valid until July 2036. 2 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 5 Vicarage Lane. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S17 3GX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Vicarage Lane 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.
