Overview

About View Point Cottage

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

It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Earlier certificates rated it A (September 2011); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity.

Untraded for 21 years, with the last transfer in January 2006. Today's modelled estimate of £695,000 sits 183.7% above the 2006 sale of £245,000.

Method

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 View Point Cottage is modelled from its 141 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BA1 8DP. 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 View Point Cottage. 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 View Point Cottage was lodged in February 2024 at band C and is valid until February 2034. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to View Point Cottage. 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 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BA1 8DP, not by walking route.
Council tax band
View Point Cottage is in council tax band E. 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.
