About 8 Darnall Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Darnall Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sheffield (S9 5BD). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 873 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 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 81 m² it's 16.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (70 m² median across 12 EPCs). Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 19% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 is 12.8% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£143/sq ft) was about 36% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 8 Darnall Drive is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in S9 5BD. 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 8 Darnall 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 8 Darnall Drive was lodged in November 2008 at band D and expired in November 2018, 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 8 Darnall 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S9 5BD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Darnall 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.
