Overview

About 9 Bell Gardens

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

9 Bell Gardens is a three-bedroom detached house in South Marston, Swindon, Swindon (SN3 4TB). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 166 m² the property is well over the postcode median (91 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Across 2002–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £534,000 is 42.4% above the 2016 sale price.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 9 Bell Gardens is modelled from its 166 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN3 4TB. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 9 Bell Gardens. 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 9 Bell Gardens was lodged in May 2016 at band D and expired in May 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 9 Bell Gardens. 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 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN3 4TB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
9 Bell Gardens is in council tax band F. 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.
