Overview

About 34 Sandy Lane

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

34 Sandy Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lowton, Warrington, Warrington (WA3 1DR). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in November 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 102), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Across 2011–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at -5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £260,000 sits 188.9% above the 2013 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£58/sq ft) was about 69.8% below the postcode norm. At 144 m² it's 24.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (116 m² median across 6 EPCs). Last sold in May 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

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 34 Sandy Lane is modelled from its 144 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WA3 1DR. 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 34 Sandy Lane. 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 34 Sandy Lane was lodged in September 2015 at band C and expired in September 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 34 Sandy Lane. 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 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WA3 1DR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
34 Sandy Lane 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.
