Overview

About 4 St Marthas Cottages

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

4 St Marthas Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Peaslake, Guildford, Guildford (GU5 9SL). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 91). The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2009, a hold of 18 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 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £533,000 sits 77.7% above the 2009 sale of £300,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£387/sq ft) was about 34.2% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs).

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 4 St Marthas Cottages is modelled from its 72 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU5 9SL. 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 4 St Marthas Cottages. 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 4 St Marthas Cottages was lodged in October 2013 at band C and expired in October 2023, 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. None is matched to 4 St Marthas Cottages. 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 9SL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 St Marthas Cottages is in council tax band E. 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.
