Overview

About 72 Walcot Road

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

72 Walcot Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Swindon (SN3 1DA). It has a recorded floor area of 134 m² (around 1442 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in September 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good.

At 134 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £334,000 sits 64.9% above the 2014 sale of £202,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£140/sq ft) was about 18.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
