About 5 Askerton Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Askerton Close is a detached house in Nine Elms, Swindon, Swindon (SN5 5XB). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2023) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in December 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since.

Held since March 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £401,000 sits 150.6% above the 2001 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£391/sq ft) was about 128.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (134 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 5 Askerton Close is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SN5 5XB. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Askerton Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC

- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.

- Council tax band
- 5 Askerton Close is in council tax band E. 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.
