How the estimate is made
The estimate for 197 Cricklade Road is modelled from its 107 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 1AE. 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.

About 197 Cricklade Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
197 Cricklade Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Swindon (SN2 1AE). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1151 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 37 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £186,000 sits 86% above the 2011 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£87/sq ft) was about 33.6% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years.

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 197 Cricklade Road is modelled from its 107 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 1AE. 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 197 Cricklade 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 197 Cricklade Road was lodged in February 2011 at band E and expired in February 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to 197 Cricklade 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 39 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN2 1AE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 197 Cricklade Road is in council tax band B. 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.
