Overview

About 5 Westminster Crescent

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

5 Westminster Crescent is a five-bedroom detached house in Burn Bridge, Harrogate, Harrogate (HG3 1LX). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows a G (score 7), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (March 2016); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 130 m² it sits well below the postcode median (187 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £674,000 sits 66.4% above the 2016 sale of £405,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£289/sq ft) was about 23.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 8 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.

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 5 Westminster Crescent is modelled from its 130 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HG3 1LX. 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 5 Westminster Crescent. 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 5 Westminster Crescent was lodged in March 2017 at band G and is valid until March 2027. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 8 applications are matched to 5 Westminster Crescent. 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 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HG3 1LX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Westminster Crescent is in council tax band F. 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.
