About 3 Alan Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Alan Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Manchester (M20 4NQ). It has a recorded floor area of 211 m² (around 2270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62). The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 211 m² the property is well over the postcode median (158 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1999–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £610,000 sits 62.7% above the 2015 sale of £375,000. Last sold in December 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 3 Alan Road is modelled from its 211 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in M20 4NQ. 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 3 Alan 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 3 Alan Road was lodged in February 2010 at band E and expired in February 2020, 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. None is matched to 3 Alan 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 7 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 54 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from M20 4NQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Alan Road 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.
