Overview

About 9 Dorking Road

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

9 Dorking Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Chorley (PR6 8TR). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 137 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 sits 59.1% above the 2014 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£146/sq ft) was about 24% below the postcode norm. Last sold in October 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

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 9 Dorking Road is modelled from its 137 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PR6 8TR. 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 9 Dorking 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 9 Dorking Road was lodged in January 2015 at band D and expired in January 2025, 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 9 Dorking 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PR6 8TR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
9 Dorking Road is in council tax band E. 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.
