About 5 Galmington Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Galmington Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Taunton (TA1 5NH). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 98), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 sits 54.8% above the 2007 sale of £155,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£200/sq ft) was about 19.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.

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 5 Galmington Road is modelled from its 72 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TA1 5NH. 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 5 Galmington 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 5 Galmington Road was lodged in June 2014 at band C and expired in June 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 5 Galmington 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 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TA1 5NH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Galmington 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.
