About Orchard Place
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Orchard Place is an end-of-terrace house in Tadworth (KT20 5BB). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 102 m² it sits well below the postcode median (162 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in August 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years. Today's modelled estimate of £505,000 is 20.2% above the 2012 sale price. One planning record on file: tree works refused in 2018.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Orchard Place is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in KT20 5BB. 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 Orchard Place. 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 Orchard Place was lodged in July 2012 at band C and expired in July 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 Orchard Place. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from KT20 5BB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Orchard Place 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.
