About 3 Mellor Lea Farm Drive

3 Mellor Lea Farm Drive is a detached house in Ecclesfield, Sheffield, Sheffield (S35 9TZ). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.

At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 53 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £339,000 sits 322.4% above the 1996 sale of £80,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£67/sq ft) was about 59.4% below the postcode norm.
