Overview

About The Old Vicarage

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

The Old Vicarage is a five-bedroom detached house in Dore, Sheffield, Sheffield (S17 3GX). It has a recorded floor area of 457 m² (around 4919 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. The property has an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81).

It hasn't traded since November 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 457 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £2,357,000 sits 260.4% above the 1996 sale of £654,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 56.3% below the postcode norm. 10 planning records sit against the property, 10 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
