It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 4-band jump.

Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

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 8 Auckland Road is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CB5 8DW. 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 8 Auckland 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 8 Auckland Road was lodged in July 2014 at band F and expired in July 2024, 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. 3 applications are matched to 8 Auckland 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CB5 8DW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Auckland Road is in council tax band D. 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.
