    RenovationFull
    Outcome in report

    Replace existing 1.8m fence and gate to back garden due to fence posts and fence being rotten, aligning fence to house edge to create extra space for recycle bins etc to be hidden from road. Replace 0.7m chain link fence bordering no 8 with a 1.8m solid timber fence, decreasing at stages (approx every 3.6m) to 1m stopping 1.6m from road side. The fence is topped with open curved diamond and is supported by concrete posts and gravel boards. The front fence is a common style mimicking most back fences in the area and with the trellis at the front it is similar with another boundary fence in the cul de sac. We plan to do more planting to soften the edges with climbing plants (e.g. honeysuckle and clematis) which will flower to attract birds, bees and other wildlife.

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 6 Butterfly Gardens is modelled from its 117 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in IP4 5TF. 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 6 Butterfly Gardens. 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 6 Butterfly Gardens was lodged in March 2018 at band D and is valid until March 2028. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 6 Butterfly Gardens. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from IP4 5TF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Butterfly Gardens 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.
