34 Mallard Drive, Slough, SL1 5BP

34 Mallard Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Slough (SL1 5BP). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £272,000 sits 71.1% above the 2007 sale of £159,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 25.2% below the postcode norm. At 90 m² it's 20% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 20 EPCs).
