About 3 Durnford Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Durnford Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Swindon (SN2 5EG). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2013) 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 September 2012. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £206,000 sits 116.8% above the 2012 sale of £95,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£106/sq ft) was about 53.6% below the postcode norm. On the market in November 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 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 3 Durnford Road is modelled from its 83 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SN2 5EG. 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 3 Durnford 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 3 Durnford Road was lodged in July 2013 at band D and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Durnford 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 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN2 5EG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Durnford 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.
