About 8 Ashbrook Farm Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Ashbrook Farm Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Stockport (SK5 6RP). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since June 2016. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since August 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 150 m² it's 20.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (125 m² median across 12 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £383,000 sits 417.6% above the 1997 sale of £74,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£46/sq ft) was about 67% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 8 Ashbrook Farm Close is modelled from its 150 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SK5 6RP. 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 8 Ashbrook Farm Close. 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 8 Ashbrook Farm Close was lodged in June 2016 at band F and expired in June 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.

- Council tax band
- 8 Ashbrook Farm Close 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.
