About 8 Newmeadow Copse
8 Newmeadow Copse is a five-bedroom detached house in Peatmoor, Swindon, Swindon (SN5 5AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1866 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £562,000 sits 65.3% above the 2008 sale of £340,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
