Overview

About 2 Burrows Cross House

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

2 Burrows Cross House is a six-bedroom mid-terrace house in Shere, Guildford, Guildford (GU5 9QF). It has a recorded floor area of 399 m² (around 4295 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83).

Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 399 m² the property is well over the postcode median (210 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £2,725,000 sits 97.5% above the 2007 sale of £1,380,000. 12 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 5 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Burrows Cross House is modelled from its 399 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GU5 9QF. 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 2 Burrows Cross 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 2 Burrows Cross House was lodged in May 2025 at band C and is valid until May 2035. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 12 applications are matched to 2 Burrows Cross 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 2 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU5 9QF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Burrows Cross House is in council tax band H. 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.
