Overview

About 31a

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

31a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Highworth, Swindon, Swindon (SN6 7AU). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 133 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 43 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £359,000 sits 51.2% above the 2010 sale of £237,500. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
