The estimate for 49a is modelled from its 83 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 1PQ. 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.

Overview

About 49a

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

49a is a two-bedroom detached house in Swindon (SN2 1PQ). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2017. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.

Untraded for 23 years, with the last transfer in January 2004. Across 1995–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £299,000 sits 109.1% above the 2004 sale of £143,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 49a is modelled from its 83 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 1PQ. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 49a. 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 49a was lodged in March 2026 at band D and is valid until March 2036. 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 49a. 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 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN2 1PQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
49a 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.
