About 9 Downing Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
9 Downing Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Shrewsbury (SY3 6BG). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £226,000 sits 50.7% above the 2014 sale of £150,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£258/sq ft) was about 18.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. At 54 m² it's 15.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 5 EPCs).

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 9 Downing Close is modelled from its 54 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SY3 6BG. 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 9 Downing 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 9 Downing Close was lodged in June 2014 at band D and expired in June 2024, 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 9 Downing 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 11 schools and 3 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SY3 6BG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 9 Downing Close is in council tax band B. 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.
