Overview

About 12 Swallows Lane

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

12 Swallows Lane is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Dial Post, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 8NL). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2013) returns a B (score 84), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on bottled lpg. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 56 m² this is the 4th smallest of 13 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 47–106 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (84 versus a worst of 33). Other recorded features include notable views.

It hasn't traded since December 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 is 36.4% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£255/sq ft) was about 25.7% below the postcode norm.

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 12 Swallows Lane is modelled from its 56 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 8NL. 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 12 Swallows Lane. 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 12 Swallows Lane was lodged in November 2013 at band B and expired in November 2023, 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. None is matched to 12 Swallows Lane. 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 1 school and 7 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 8NL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
12 Swallows Lane is in council tax band B. 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.
