How the estimate is made
The estimate for Talbot House is modelled from its 225 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TA1 1ED. 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 Talbot House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Talbot House is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Taunton (TA1 1ED). It has a recorded floor area of 225 m² (around 2422 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in August 2010 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
One historical planning record sits against the property in 2020. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Talbot House is modelled from its 225 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TA1 1ED. 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. No sale is recorded for Talbot House, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. 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 Talbot House was lodged in March 2013 at band E and expired in March 2023, 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. 1 application is matched to Talbot House. 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 1ED, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Talbot House is in council tax band F. 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.
