Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).

Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 is 25.7% below the 2024 sale of £192,500, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look.

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 78 Bolingbroke Road is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in CV3 1AQ. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 78 Bolingbroke Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 78 Bolingbroke 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.

- 78 Bolingbroke Road is in council tax band A. 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.
