The Lodge, Ben Lane, Sheffield, S6 4SD
About The Lodge
The Lodge is a detached house in Sheffield (S6 4SD). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 836 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a G (score 15), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 23). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
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. At 78 m² it's 20.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (98 m² median across 9 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £293,000 is 46.5% above the 2009 sale price. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2009.
