Overview

About First Tower

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

First Tower is a detached house in Colnbrook, Slough, Slough (SL3 0JH). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a G (score 18), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it F (April 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (55 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £461,000 sits 72.3% above the 2014 sale of £267,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£224/sq ft) was about 37.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 12 years since the last transfer (June 2014).
