Overview

About 55 Albemarle Road

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

55 Albemarle Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Taunton (TA1 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2019) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

Held since October 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £172,000 is 43.3% above the 2008 sale price.

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 55 Albemarle Road is modelled from its 80 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TA1 1BD. 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 55 Albemarle Road. 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 55 Albemarle Road was lodged in January 2019 at band D and is valid until January 2029. 2 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 55 Albemarle Road. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TA1 1BD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
55 Albemarle Road 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.
