Overview

About Meadow Croft

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

Meadow Croft is a detached house in Copsale, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 6QR). It has a recorded floor area of 376 m² (around 4047 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in April 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 376 m² the property is well over the postcode median (118 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,576,000 sits 319.1% above the 1999 sale of £376,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£93/sq ft) was about 63.5% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 Meadow Croft is modelled from its 376 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 6QR. 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 Meadow Croft. 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 Meadow Croft was lodged in November 2015 at band C and expired in November 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 4 applications are matched to Meadow Croft. 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 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 6QR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Meadow Croft is in council tax band G. 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.
