Overview

About 1 The Laurels

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

1 The Laurels is a semi-detached house in Barns Green, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 0QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 154 m² (around 1658 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2021) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2016 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Good to Poor.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area.

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 1 The Laurels is modelled from its 154 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 0QQ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 1 The Laurels. 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 The Laurels was lodged in March 2021 at band E and is valid until March 2031. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 1 The Laurels. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 3 schools and 28 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 0QQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 The Laurels 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.
