1 Crofton Rise, Dronfield, S18 1RH
About 1 Crofton Rise
1 Crofton Rise is a three-bedroom detached house in Dronfield (S18 1RH). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 886 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a corner plot.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 sits 57.2% above the 2009 sale of £174,950. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
