12a, Catherine Close, Shrivenham, Swindon, SN6 8ER
About 12a
12a is a three-bedroom detached house in Shrivenham, Swindon, Swindon (SN6 8ER). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 954 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 89 m² it sits well below the postcode median (137 m² across 12 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £444,000 is 30.6% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£356/sq ft) was about 67.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
