Overview

About The Air Balloon

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

The Air Balloon is an end-of-terrace house in Bristol (BS5 8LB). It has a recorded floor area of 35 m² (around 377 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2012-2021. At 35 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across The Air Balloon (35–56 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since December 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (51 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £174,000 is 20% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£385/sq ft) was about 27.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for The Air Balloon is modelled from its 35 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BS5 8LB. 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 Air Balloon. 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 Air Balloon was lodged in February 2026 at band C and is valid until February 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 Air Balloon. 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 39 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BS5 8LB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
