About The Bungalow

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

The Bungalow is a three-bedroom detached house in Unstone, Dronfield, Dronfield (S18 4DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 185 m² (around 1994 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a self-contained annexe.

At 185 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 sits 51.1% above the 2012 sale of £270,000. Last sold in August 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
