About 3 The Crest
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 The Crest is a four-bedroom detached house in Old Park, Telford, Telford (TF3 4TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1308 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (November 2010) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from November 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £310,000 is 36.6% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£174/sq ft) was about 25.3% below the postcode norm. Last sold in November 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

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 3 The Crest is modelled from its 122 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in TF3 4TJ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 3 The Crest. 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 3 The Crest was lodged in November 2010 at band D and expired in November 2020, 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 3 The Crest. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 20 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TF3 4TJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 The Crest is in council tax band E. 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.
