Overview

About 18 Dorchester Road

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

18 Dorchester Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bristol (BS7 0LA). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2012–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £335,000 is 14.7% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£335/sq ft) was about 98.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: May 2021 at £292,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 18 Dorchester Road is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BS7 0LA. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 18 Dorchester 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 18 Dorchester Road was lodged in October 2014 at band D and expired in October 2024, 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. None is matched to 18 Dorchester 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BS7 0LA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
18 Dorchester 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.
