How the estimate is made
The estimate for 34a is modelled from its 44 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TQ9 5AD. 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.

About 34a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
34a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bridgetown, Totnes, Totnes (TQ9 5AD). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2003, a hold of 23 years that's notably long for the area. At 44 m² it sits well below the postcode median (97 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1999–2003, sale prices on this property compounded at 27.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £345,000 is 38% above the 2003 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£528/sq ft) was about 172.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 34a is modelled from its 44 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TQ9 5AD. 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 34a. 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 34a was lodged in July 2014 at band E and expired in July 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. None is matched to 34a. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TQ9 5AD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 34a 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.
