How the estimate is made

The estimate for 3 is modelled from its 152 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PE8 5SL. 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.

Overview

About 3

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

3 is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Achurch, Peterborough, Peterborough (PE8 5SL). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2024. Past consents include an extension, a porch and solar panel installation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2017–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £461,000 is 14.1% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£247/sq ft) was about 31.9% below the postcode norm. At 152 m² it's 15.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (180 m² median across 14 EPCs). Last sale on file: £404,000 in April 2022. 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 is modelled from its 152 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PE8 5SL. 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. 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 was lodged in April 2016 at band E and expired in April 2026, 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 3. 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 1 school and 26 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PE8 5SL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 is in council tax band D. 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.
