How the estimate is made
The estimate for 153 College Road is modelled from its 109 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in S60 1JD. 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.

About 153 College Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
153 College Road is a semi-detached house in Rotherham (S60 1JD). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 22 years, with the last transfer in June 2004. At 109 m² the property is well over the postcode median (53 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 153 College Road is modelled from its 109 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in S60 1JD. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 153 College Road. 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 153 College Road was lodged in October 2013 at band D and expired in October 2023, 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 153 College Road. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S60 1JD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 153 College Road 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.
