Overview

About 4 Carstairs Avenue

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

4 Carstairs Avenue is a five-bedroom detached house in Stockport (SK2 7DS). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2006–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £549,000 is 37.3% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£275/sq ft) was about 101.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

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 4 Carstairs Avenue is modelled from its 135 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SK2 7DS. 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 4 Carstairs Avenue. 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 4 Carstairs Avenue was lodged in July 2016 at band D and expired in July 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 4 Carstairs Avenue. 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 8 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SK2 7DS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
4 Carstairs Avenue is in council tax band D. 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.
