The estimate for 3 Main Road is modelled from its 84 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TA3 5AS. 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.

3 Main Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in East Lyng, Taunton, Taunton (TA3 5AS). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 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 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £251,000 sits 56.9% above the 2008 sale of £160,000. At 84 m² it's 23.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (110 m² median across 8 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2012.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
