The estimate for The Croft House is modelled from its 342 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in S66 9JH. 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.

The Croft House is a detached house in Morthen, Rotherham, Rotherham (S66 9JH). It has a recorded floor area of 342 m² (around 3681 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (December 2016) shows an F (score 25), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (July 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 56), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg.
It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 342 m² the property is well over the postcode median (178 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 51.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £753,000 is 27.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£160/sq ft) was about 28.8% below the postcode norm.
The Croft House's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.

Because the property is a large detached home over 300m², has been extended more than once, and has no mains gas supply, we believe a Level 3 building survey should be considered.
