How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Jay Drive is modelled from its 123 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TF1 6FU. 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 5 Jay Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Jay Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Apley, Telford, Telford (TF1 6FU). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since October 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £295,000 sits 278.2% above the 1998 sale of £78,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£59/sq ft) was about 59% below the postcode norm.

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 5 Jay Drive is modelled from its 123 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TF1 6FU. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Jay 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 5 Jay Drive was lodged in January 2013 at band D and expired in January 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 5 Jay 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TF1 6FU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Jay Drive is in council tax band D. 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.
