Overview

About 23 Acacia Road

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

23 Acacia Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU1 1HL). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement.

Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in November 1997. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £469,000 sits 359.8% above the 1997 sale of £102,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£109/sq ft) was about 64.6% below the postcode norm.
