About 4 Holmesdale Close
4 Holmesdale Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Dronfield (S18 2EZ). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 760 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 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 £246,000 sits 93.7% above the 2009 sale of £127,000.
