How the estimate is made

About 2 Watts Lea
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Watts Lea is a four-bedroom detached house in Horsell, Woking, Woking (GU21 4XQ). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1422 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.
6 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £882,000 is 17.6% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£528/sq ft) was about 90.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

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 2 Watts Lea is modelled from its 132 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU21 4XQ. 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 2 Watts Lea. 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 2 Watts Lea was lodged in September 2010 at band D and expired in September 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. 6 applications are matched to 2 Watts Lea. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU21 4XQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Watts Lea is in council tax band G. 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.
