Overview

About 3 Albury Heights

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

3 Albury Heights is a two-bedroom detached house in Guildford (GU1 2BT). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. At 67 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (67–70 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (55 versus a best of 81). The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (June 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2011–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£492/sq ft) was about 34.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold May 2021 for £355,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 3 Albury Heights is modelled from its 67 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU1 2BT. 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 3 Albury Heights. 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 3 Albury Heights was lodged in October 2014 at band D and expired in October 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 3 Albury Heights. 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 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU1 2BT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Albury Heights 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.
