Overview

About 1 Gorsewood Road

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

1 Gorsewood Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Woking (GU21 8UT). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £438,000 sits 65.3% above the 2013 sale of £265,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£342/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm. On the market in February 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years.
