Overview

About Oaklea

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

Oaklea is a semi-detached house in Minsterley, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY5 0AE). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2005–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at -2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £238,000 sits 60.8% above the 2015 sale of £148,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£170/sq ft) was about 24.1% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Oaklea is modelled from its 81 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SY5 0AE. 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. 2 sales are recorded for Oaklea. 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 Oaklea was lodged in September 2014 at band E and expired in September 2024, 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 Oaklea. 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 1 school and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SY5 0AE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
