About 17 Branscombe Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 Branscombe Drive is a semi-detached house in Royal Wootton Bassett, Swindon, Swindon (SN4 8HP). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1995, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £372,000 sits 344.2% above the 1995 sale of £83,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£62/sq ft) was about 72.8% below the postcode norm. At 126 m² it's 21.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (104 m² median across 9 EPCs).
