About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a semi-detached house in Guildford (GU2 4JN). It has a recorded floor area of 43 m² (around 463 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2021) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since October 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 43 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–60 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D across 4 units on file.
Across 1997–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at -2.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 sits 728% above the 2022 sale of £25,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£54/sq ft) was about 82.6% below the postcode norm. Most recent transfer: July 2022 at £25,000. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Flat 1 is modelled from its 43 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU2 4JN. 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. 6 sales are recorded for Flat 1. 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 Flat 1 was lodged in June 2021 at band E and is valid until June 2031. 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 Flat 1. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 18 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU2 4JN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 1 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.
