About The Plat
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
The Plat is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Coolham, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 8QD). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 503 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a basement. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in November 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (126 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £337,000 sits 461.7% above the 1996 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£119/sq ft) was about 35.4% below the postcode norm. 10 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.

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 The Plat is modelled from its 47 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 8QD. 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 The Plat. 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 The Plat was lodged in March 2009 at band C and expired in March 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. 10 applications are matched to The Plat. 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 2 schools and 15 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 8QD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- The Plat is in council tax band F. 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.
