Overview

About 287a

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

287a is a mid-terrace house in Slough (SL1 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (April 2024) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in September 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. At 59 m² this is the 22nd smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 21–95 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 34 units on file.

Across 2010–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 is 35.6% below the 2018 sale of £550,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£866/sq ft) was about 157.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 59 m² it's 18% larger than the typical home in the postcode (50 m² median across 33 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). 8 years since the last transfer (April 2018).

How 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 287a is modelled from its 59 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SL1 1BD. 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 287a. 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 287a was lodged in April 2024 at band E and is valid until April 2034. 2 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 287a. 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 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SL1 1BD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
