Overview

About 7 Canterbury Road

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

7 Canterbury Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU2 9TF). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2024) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88).

It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 113 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £536,000 sits 168% above the 2008 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 43.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
