Overview

About 23 Highworth Road

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

23 Highworth Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in South Marston, Swindon, Swindon (SN3 4SF). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 822 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £276,000 sits 78.1% above the 2009 sale of £155,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
