Overview

About Downside

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

Downside is a four-bedroom detached house in Broad Town, Swindon, Swindon (SN4 7RR). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2014) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. On the market in December 2014 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. Across 2004–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £653,000 is 33.3% above the 2014 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

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 Downside is modelled from its 173 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN4 7RR. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Downside. 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 Downside was lodged in September 2014 at band B and expired in September 2024, 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 Downside. 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 2 schools and 13 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN4 7RR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Downside 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.
