About 10 Heronbridge Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
10 Heronbridge Close is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Westlea, Swindon, Swindon (SN5 7DR). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 37 m² this is the 12th smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 30–54 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (January 2011); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£276/sq ft) was about 60.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: June 2022 at £110,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 10 Heronbridge Close is modelled from its 37 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SN5 7DR. 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 10 Heronbridge 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 10 Heronbridge Close was lodged in December 2013 at band E and expired in December 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 10 Heronbridge 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN5 7DR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 10 Heronbridge Close is in council tax band A. 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.
