About 31 Kensington Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
31 Kensington Road is an end-of-terrace house in St. George, Bristol, Bristol (BS5 7NB). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 59 m² this is the 10th smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 43–119 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 33 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from August 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £197,000 is 30.4% below the 2025 sale of £283,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£446/sq ft) was about 206.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning application is currently pending a decision in 2026. Most recent transfer was May 2025 at £283,000 — fresh data. At 59 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 32 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

Start your researchHow 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 31 Kensington Road is modelled from its 59 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BS5 7NB. 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 31 Kensington 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 31 Kensington Road was lodged in August 2016 at band D and expired in August 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 31 Kensington 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 43 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BS5 7NB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 31 Kensington Road is in council tax band A. 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.
