Overview

About 31 Craig Avenue

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

31 Craig Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in Urmston, Manchester, Manchester (M41 5RS). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1030 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Most recent transfer: December 2020 at £350,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2000. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £454,000 is 29.7% above the 2020 sale price.

Method

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 31 Craig Avenue is modelled from its 96 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in M41 5RS. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 31 Craig Avenue. 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 31 Craig Avenue was lodged in June 2009 at band E and expired in June 2019, 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 31 Craig Avenue. 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 9 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from M41 5RS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
31 Craig Avenue is in council tax band C. 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.
