How the estimate is made
The estimate for 25 Cobden Road is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 1DW. 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 25 Cobden Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
25 Cobden Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Swindon (SN2 1DW). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2022) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2017. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Most recent transfer: November 2022 at £265,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£397/sq ft) was about 185.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it's 20% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (78 m² median across 12 EPCs).

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 25 Cobden Road is modelled from its 62 m² EPC floor area, its 5 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 1DW. 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. 5 sales are recorded for 25 Cobden 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 25 Cobden Road was lodged in July 2022 at band D and is valid until July 2032. 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 25 Cobden 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 37 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN2 1DW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 25 Cobden 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.
