About 7 Blake Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
7 Blake Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Taunton (TA1 3BE). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 89 m² it's 20.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 12 EPCs). 10 years since the last transfer (August 2016). Across 2003–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £211,000 is 36.6% above the 2016 sale price.

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 7 Blake Street is modelled from its 89 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TA1 3BE. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 7 Blake Street. 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 7 Blake Street was lodged in March 2016 at band D and expired in March 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 7 Blake Street. 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 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TA1 3BE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 7 Blake Street 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.
