Overview

About 31 Kings Tower

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

It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. At 67 m² this is the 37th smallest of 71 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–202 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 71 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87). Main heating runs on electricity.

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 31 Kings Tower is modelled from its 67 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CM1 1GS. 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 31 Kings Tower. 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 31 Kings Tower was lodged in March 2014 at band C and expired in March 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. None is matched to 31 Kings Tower. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CM1 1GS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
31 Kings Tower is in council tax band E. 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.
