Overview

About 28 Josephs Road

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

28 Josephs Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU1 1DW). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1065 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Held since July 2002 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1995–2002, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £522,000 sits 104.7% above the 2002 sale of £255,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£239/sq ft) was about 26.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).

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 28 Josephs Road is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU1 1DW. 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 28 Josephs 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 28 Josephs Road was lodged in October 2010 at band E and expired in October 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to 28 Josephs 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU1 1DW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
28 Josephs Road 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.
