Overview

About 28 Church Ground

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

28 Church Ground is a three-bedroom detached house in South Marston, Swindon, Swindon (SN3 4FL). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2021) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83).

It hasn't traded since September 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 144 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £437,000 sits 74.8% above the 2009 sale of £250,000.
