Overview

About 3 South Villas

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

3 South Villas is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cotford St. Luke, Taunton, Taunton (TA4 1DD). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2021) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 sits 57.8% above the 2009 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£147/sq ft) was about 15.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.
