About 23 Alder Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 Alder Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Swindon (SN2 2SH). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 799 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since July 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. At 74 m² the property is well over the postcode median (54 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Across 2011–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 20.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £236,000 sits 62.8% above the 2011 sale of £145,000.

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 23 Alder Close is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 2SH. 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 23 Alder Close. 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 23 Alder Close 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. None is matched to 23 Alder Close. 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 28 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN2 2SH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 23 Alder Close 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.
