Overview

About 8 Branksome Road

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

8 Branksome Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Swindon (SN25 3HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it B (July 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 88 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £255,000 sits 78.3% above the 2013 sale of £143,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£151/sq ft) was about 63.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 12 years since the last transfer (December 2013).
