How the estimate is made
The estimate for 16 Melton Way is modelled from its 147 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SY3 6DW. 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.

About 16 Melton Way
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Melton Way is a five-bedroom detached house in Shrewsbury (SY3 6DW). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (98 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £461,000 sits 205.3% above the 2000 sale of £151,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£95/sq ft) was about 52.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 16 Melton Way is modelled from its 147 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SY3 6DW. 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 16 Melton Way. 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 16 Melton Way was lodged in July 2013 at band C and expired in July 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. 1 application is matched to 16 Melton Way. 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 6DW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16 Melton Way 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.
