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

It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1308 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63).

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 21 Brockwell is modelled from its 121 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in MK43 7TD. 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 21 Brockwell. 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 21 Brockwell was lodged in November 2008 at band E and expired in November 2018, 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 21 Brockwell. 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 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from MK43 7TD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
21 Brockwell is in council tax band F. 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.
