Overview

About 20 St Swithuns Road

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

20 St Swithuns Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Hempsted, Gloucester, Gloucester (GL2 5LH). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2017) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor.

The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 16 units on file.

At 64 m² it sits well below the postcode median (102 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2015–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 24.5% per year.

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 20 St Swithuns Road is modelled from its 64 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL2 5LH. 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 20 St Swithuns 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 20 St Swithuns Road was lodged in December 2017 at band D and is valid until December 2027. 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 St Swithuns 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL2 5LH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
20 St Swithuns Road 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.
