About Chantry House

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

Chantry House is a three-bedroom detached house in Shere, Guildford, Guildford (GU5 9HF). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G.

Held since August 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.

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 Chantry House is modelled from its 160 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU5 9HF. 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 Chantry House. 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 Chantry House was lodged in January 2020 at band D and is valid until January 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. 6 applications are matched to Chantry House. 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 1 school and 28 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU5 9HF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band: Chantry House 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.
