Overview

About 8 Blandford Drive

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

8 Blandford Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Chesterfield (S41 8QT). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a C (score 72). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £212,000 sits 55.9% above the 2016 sale of £136,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£160/sq ft) was about 22.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Last sold in August 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
