Overview

About 7 Academy Drive

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

7 Academy Drive is a five-bedroom detached house in Dringhouses, York, York (YO24 1UJ). It has a recorded floor area of 175 m² (around 1880 sq ft) and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, floor efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £662,000 is 43.9% above the 2009 sale price.
