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 1 Bedford Road

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

1 Bedford Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Carlisle (CA2 5QE). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since December 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £237,000 is 18.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£190/sq ft) was about 54.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £200,000.

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 1 Bedford Road is modelled from its 98 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CA2 5QE. 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 1 Bedford 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 1 Bedford Road was lodged in May 2021 at band E and is valid until May 2031. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Bedford 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 18 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CA2 5QE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Bedford 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.
