How the estimate is made
The estimate for 20 Gelt Close is modelled from its 66 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CA3 0HJ. 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.

About 20 Gelt Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Gelt Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Carlisle (CA3 0HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2021) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).
It hasn't traded since March 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (107 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £175,000 is 26.8% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£194/sq ft) was about 30.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 20 Gelt Close is modelled from its 66 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CA3 0HJ. 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 20 Gelt Close. 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 20 Gelt Close was lodged in June 2021 at band C and is valid until June 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. None is matched to 20 Gelt Close. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CA3 0HJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20 Gelt Close 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.
