Overview

About 5 Prescott Avenue

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

It has a recorded floor area of 41 m² (around 441 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 41 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–79 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 15 units on file. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).

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 5 Prescott Avenue is modelled from its 41 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GL4 6AT. 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 5 Prescott Avenue. 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 5 Prescott Avenue was lodged in April 2013 at band D and expired in April 2023, 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 5 Prescott Avenue. 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. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GL4 6AT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Prescott Avenue 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.
