About 17

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

17 is a detached house in Purton Stoke, Swindon, Swindon (SN5 4JG). It has a recorded floor area of 333 m² (around 3584 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (May 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Poor.

At 333 m² the property is well over the postcode median (120 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £904,000 sits 234.8% above the 1996 sale of £270,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£75/sq ft) was about 69.3% below the postcode norm. 7 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
