Overview

About 17 Eider Drive

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

17 Eider Drive is a detached house in Apley, Telford, Telford (TF1 6TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 159 m² (around 1711 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2001, a hold of 25 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 £490,000 sits 151.3% above the 2001 sale of £195,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 22% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs).
