Overview

About Bees Acres

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

Bees Acres is a six-bedroom detached house in Worplesdon, Guildford, Guildford (GU3 3QF). It has a recorded floor area of 493 m² (around 5307 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 493 m² the property is well over the postcode median (271 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. 6 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a garage conversion, an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £3,689,000 is 18.2% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£588/sq ft) was about 103.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
