About 20 Boydell Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Boydell Close is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Shaw, Swindon, Swindon (SN5 5QT). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2026) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2016. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £170,000 sits 56.7% above the 2007 sale of £108,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£240/sq ft) was about 30.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 42 m² it's 22.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (54 m² median across 17 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2006.

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 20 Boydell Close is modelled from its 42 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SN5 5QT. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 20 Boydell 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 20 Boydell Close was lodged in March 2026 at band E and is valid until March 2036. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 20 Boydell 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN5 5QT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20 Boydell 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.
