About 18 Holm Oaks
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Holm Oaks is a three-bedroom detached house in Cowfold, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 8AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1997–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £556,000 is 20.3% above the 2016 sale price.

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 18 Holm Oaks is modelled from its 93 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 8AQ. 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 18 Holm Oaks. 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 18 Holm Oaks was lodged in March 2016 at band D and expired in March 2026, 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. 1 application is matched to 18 Holm Oaks. 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.

- Council tax band
- 18 Holm Oaks 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.
