About 8 Cawood Square
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Cawood Square is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Stockport (SK5 8JS). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
Today's modelled estimate of £227,000 is 41.9% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£162/sq ft) was about 116.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: May 2021 at £160,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 8 Cawood Square is modelled from its 92 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SK5 8JS. 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 Cawood Square. 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 Cawood Square was lodged in August 2015 at band D and expired in August 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 8 Cawood Square. 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 1 month, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SK5 8JS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Cawood Square is in council tax band A. 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.
