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

16 Dorset Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Brimington, Chesterfield, Chesterfield (S43 1DS). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since August 2010. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Method

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 16 Dorset Drive is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in S43 1DS. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 16 Dorset Drive. 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 16 Dorset Drive was lodged in June 2013 at band E and expired in June 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 16 Dorset Drive. 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 19 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S43 1DS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
16 Dorset Drive 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.
