About 4a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4a is a detached house in Marple, Stockport, Stockport (SK6 7QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 400 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. At 37 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (37–186 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 14 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 1999, a hold of 27 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. Today's modelled estimate of £167,000 sits 122.7% above the 1999 sale of £75,000. At 37 m² it sits well below the postcode median (75 m² across 13 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 4a is modelled from its 37 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SK6 7QJ. 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 4a. 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 4a was lodged in January 2010 at band D and expired in January 2020, 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. 2 applications are matched to 4a. 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 9 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SK6 7QJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4a 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.
