Overview

About Place Cottage

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

Place Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Worplesdon, Guildford, Guildford (GU3 3RD). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 2 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include tree works, an extension, partial demolition and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An application is currently awaiting a decision.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Place Cottage is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU3 3RD. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Place Cottage. 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 Place Cottage was lodged in February 2020 at band D and is valid until February 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to Place Cottage. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU3 3RD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Place Cottage is in council tax band F. 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.
