How the estimate is made

The estimate for Castle Farm is modelled from its 231 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BA2 0DD. 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.

Overview

About Castle Farm

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

Castle Farm is a detached house in Farmborough, Bath, Bath (BA2 0DD). It has a recorded floor area of 231 m² (around 2486 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1996-2002. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in July 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, lighting went from Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in July 2000. 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 £788,000 sits 506.2% above the 2000 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 83.2% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 Castle Farm is modelled from its 231 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BA2 0DD. 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 Castle Farm. 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 Castle Farm was lodged in December 2015 at band C and expired in December 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to Castle Farm. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BA2 0DD, not by walking route.
