Overview

About 2 The Poplars

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

2 The Poplars is a semi-detached house in Cotham, Newark, Newark (NG23 5JT). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 793 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a G (score 4), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 35). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 74 m² it sits well below the postcode median (135 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 3 refused. Across 2003–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 is 45.5% above the 2008 sale price.

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 2 The Poplars is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in NG23 5JT. 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 2 The Poplars. 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 2 The Poplars was lodged in October 2008 at band G and expired in October 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. 3 applications are matched to 2 The Poplars. 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. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from NG23 5JT. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 The Poplars 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.
