Overview

About 3 Dover Drive

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

3 Dover Drive is a detached house in Leegomery, Telford, Telford (TF1 6TD). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (September 2014); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £303,000 sits 229.3% above the 1999 sale of £92,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 29.5% below the postcode norm. At 101 m² it's 19.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (126 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
