Overview

About The Hirsel

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

The Hirsel is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Batheaston, Bath, Bath (BA1 7RL). It has a recorded floor area of 229 m² (around 2465 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a balcony and a self-contained annexe.

At 229 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £728,000 sits 57.4% above the 2014 sale of £462,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£188/sq ft) was about 27.5% below the postcode norm. Last sold in December 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

How to read this page

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 The Hirsel is modelled from its 229 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BA1 7RL. 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 The Hirsel. 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 The Hirsel was lodged in June 2026 at band D and is valid until June 2036. 2 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 The Hirsel. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BA1 7RL, not by walking route.
Council tax band
The Hirsel 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.
