About 38 Alpha Road

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

38 Alpha Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Croydon (CR0 6TH). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C.

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 38 Alpha Road is modelled from its 76 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CR0 6TH. 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 38 Alpha 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 38 Alpha Road was lodged in May 2016 at band E and expired in May 2026, 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 38 Alpha 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 53 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CR0 6TH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
38 Alpha Road is in council tax band C. 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.
