Overview

About 5 Laurel Garth Close

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

5 Laurel Garth Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Old Whittington, Chesterfield, Chesterfield (S41 9LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 706 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since May 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £157,000 sits 206.3% above the 2001 sale of £51,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£73/sq ft) was about 53.5% below the postcode norm. At 66 m² it's 19.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (55 m² median across 9 EPCs).

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Laurel Garth Close is modelled from its 66 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in S41 9LZ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Laurel Garth Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 5 Laurel Garth Close was lodged in January 2009 at band D and expired in January 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Laurel Garth Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S41 9LZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Laurel Garth Close is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
