Overview

About 186a

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

186a is a five-bedroom detached house in Lowton, Warrington, Warrington (WA3 1DG). It has a recorded floor area of 224 m² (around 2411 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since January 2006, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. At 224 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 37 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Across 2000–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 26.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £478,000 sits 73.8% above the 2006 sale of £275,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an annexe and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

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 186a is modelled from its 224 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WA3 1DG. 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 186a. 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 186a was lodged in July 2016 at band D and expired in July 2026, 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. 2 applications are matched to 186a. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WA3 1DG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
186a is in council tax band F. 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.
