Overview

About Two Firs

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

Two Firs is a four-bedroom detached house in Guildford (GU4 7PA). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1647 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since May 2012. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £883,000 sits 80.2% above the 2012 sale of £490,000. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

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 Two Firs is modelled from its 153 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GU4 7PA. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Two Firs. 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 Two Firs was lodged in October 2014 at band E and expired in October 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to Two Firs. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU4 7PA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Two Firs 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.
