Overview

About Richmond Court

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

Richmond Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Harrogate (HG1 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2007 onwards. At 83 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across Richmond Court (29–83 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (54 versus a best of 79). The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Richmond Court is modelled from its 83 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HG1 1BW. 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. 4 sales are recorded for Richmond Court. 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 Richmond Court was lodged in July 2014 at band E and expired in July 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. None is matched to Richmond Court. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HG1 1BW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
