About 55 Church Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
55 Church Road is a mid-terrace house in Combe Down, Bath, Bath (BA2 5JQ). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. At 58 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (58–202 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 17 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (101 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in November 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. Across 1996–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.7% per year.

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 55 Church Road is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BA2 5JQ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 55 Church Road. 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 55 Church Road was lodged in July 2016 at band D and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 55 Church Road. 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BA2 5JQ, not by walking route.
- Council tax band
- 55 Church Road is in council tax band B. 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.
