Overview

About 5 Nichol Place

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

5 Nichol Place is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cotford St. Luke, Taunton, Taunton (TA4 1JD). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2015) 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 February 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 108), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 22 years, with the last transfer in June 2004. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1999–2004, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £260,000 sits 67.7% above the 2004 sale of £155,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Nichol Place is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TA4 1JD. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 5 Nichol Place. 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 Nichol Place was lodged in December 2015 at band D and expired in December 2025, 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 5 Nichol Place. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TA4 1JD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Nichol Place is in council tax band C. 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.
