Overview

About 3 Oak Cottages

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

3 Oak Cottages is a semi-detached house in Crawley Down, Crawley, Crawley (RH10 4HS). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1089 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £453,000 sits 81.2% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£230/sq ft) was about 18.6% below the postcode norm. At 101 m² it's 23.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (82 m² median across 24 EPCs).

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 Oak Cottages is modelled from its 101 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RH10 4HS. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 3 Oak Cottages. 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 Oak Cottages was lodged in February 2009 at band D and expired in February 2019, 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 3 Oak Cottages. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH10 4HS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Oak Cottages 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.
