About 1b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1b is a detached house in Swindon (SN1 4EY). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.
Across 2004–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £375,000 sits 53.1% above the 2014 sale of £245,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£262/sq ft) was about 15.9% below the postcode norm. At 87 m² it sits well below the postcode median (195 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2015. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in March 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

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 1b is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN1 4EY. 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 1b. 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 1b was lodged in September 2016 at band D and expired in September 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1b. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN1 4EY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1b is in council tax band D. 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.
