Overview

About 23 Blackthorn Close

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

23 Blackthorn Close is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Royal Wootton Bassett, Swindon, Swindon (SN4 7JE). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2002, a hold of 24 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £220,000 sits 144.6% above the 2002 sale of £89,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£129/sq ft) was about 34.5% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.

Method

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 23 Blackthorn Close is modelled from its 65 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SN4 7JE. 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 23 Blackthorn Close. 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 23 Blackthorn Close was lodged in December 2012 at band D and expired in December 2022, 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. 1 application is matched to 23 Blackthorn Close. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN4 7JE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
23 Blackthorn Close 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.
