About 5 Swan Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Swan Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lincoln (LN2 1LF). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 37 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (37–73 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 11 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 74). Earlier certificates rated it B (June 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
At 37 m² it sits well below the postcode median (63 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £164,000 is 37.2% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£300/sq ft) was about 60.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

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 5 Swan Street is modelled from its 37 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in LN2 1LF. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 5 Swan Street. 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 Swan Street was lodged in July 2026 at band C and is valid until July 2036. 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 5 Swan Street. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LN2 1LF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Swan Street is in council tax band B. 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.
