Overview

About 1 Ashcroft Drive

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

1 Ashcroft Drive is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Old Whittington, Chesterfield, Chesterfield (S41 9NU). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. Other recorded features include notable views. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since April 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £246,000 sits 158.9% above the 2009 sale of £95,000. At 106 m² it's 24.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (85 m² median across 7 EPCs). 4 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 1 refused.
