Overview

About 5 Cromwell

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

5 Cromwell is a four-bedroom detached house in Freshbrook, Swindon, Swindon (SN5 8LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.

Today's modelled estimate of £387,000 sits 64.7% above the 2013 sale of £235,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£225/sq ft) was about 32.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. At 97 m² it's 19% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (120 m² median across 22 EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Cromwell is modelled from its 97 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SN5 8LZ. 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 Cromwell. 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 5 Cromwell was lodged in April 2013 at band D and expired in April 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5 Cromwell. 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 14 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SN5 8LZ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Cromwell 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.
