Overview

About 1 Devon Drive

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

It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1183 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.

Across 1998–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £457,000 sits 74.1% above the 2012 sale of £262,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£222/sq ft) was about 50.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Devon Drive is modelled from its 110 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RG4 6NT. 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 1 Devon Drive. 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 1 Devon Drive was lodged in May 2011 at band D and expired in May 2021, 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. None is matched to 1 Devon Drive. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RG4 6NT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Devon Drive 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.
