About 45 Chestnut Way
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
45 Chestnut Way is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bramley, Guildford, Guildford (GU5 0JE). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2019) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

Across 2002–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £608,000 sits 125.2% above the 2009 sale of £270,000.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 45 Chestnut Way is modelled from its 138 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU5 0JE. 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 45 Chestnut Way. 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 45 Chestnut Way was lodged in January 2019 at band D and is valid until January 2029. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.
