About 29 Kingshill Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
29 Kingshill Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Swindon (SN1 4LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 30 m² (around 323 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. At 30 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (30–201 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (30 versus a best of 74). Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it C (January 2014); the latest reading is 3 bands lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 55), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 1996, a hold of 30 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. At 30 m² it sits well below the postcode median (75 m² across 26 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £196,000 sits 117.8% above the 1996 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£279/sq ft) was about 107% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused.

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 29 Kingshill Road is modelled from its 30 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SN1 4LJ. 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 29 Kingshill Road. 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 29 Kingshill Road was lodged in January 2014 at band F and expired in January 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 29 Kingshill Road. 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 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN1 4LJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 29 Kingshill Road is in council tax band C. 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.
