About 2 Carstairs Avenue
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Carstairs Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Swindon (SN3 2DE). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 sits 67.2% above the 2009 sale of £128,000.

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 2 Carstairs Avenue is modelled from its 103 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SN3 2DE. 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 2 Carstairs Avenue. 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 2 Carstairs Avenue was lodged in August 2009 at band D and expired in August 2019, 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 2 Carstairs Avenue. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN3 2DE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Carstairs Avenue 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.
