Overview

About 3 Bishop Road

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

3 Bishop Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Urmston, Manchester, Manchester (M41 8QU). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 2013–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £415,000 is 28.5% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£319/sq ft) was about 52.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: August 2021 at £322,950. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 3 Bishop Road is modelled from its 94 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in M41 8QU. 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 3 Bishop 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 Bishop Road was lodged in December 2013 at band E and expired in December 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 3 Bishop 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 9 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from M41 8QU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Bishop Road 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.
