About 1 Post Office Cottages
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1251 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 116 m² the property is well over the postcode median (82 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Sold September 2020 for £377,500. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £421,000 is 11.5% above the 2020 sale price.

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 1 Post Office Cottages is modelled from its 116 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SP4 0AB. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 1 Post Office Cottages. 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 1 Post Office Cottages was lodged in February 2011 at band D and expired in February 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 Post Office Cottages. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 26 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SP4 0AB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Post Office Cottages is in council tax band D. 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.
