How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Vale Road is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP20 1JA. 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.

About 1 Vale Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.
Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in June 2010. At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (100 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2006–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year.

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 1 Vale Road is modelled from its 53 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP20 1JA. 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 1 Vale Road. 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 1 Vale Road was lodged in August 2014 at band D and expired in August 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 1 Vale Road. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP20 1JA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Vale Road is in council tax band A. 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.
