Overview

About 20 Armstrong Close

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

20 Armstrong Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Birchwood, Warrington, Warrington (WA3 6DH). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 52 m² this is the 5th smallest of 54 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–115 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since September 2014. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since June 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 sits 205.3% above the 2001 sale of £38,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£68/sq ft) was about 49.8% below the postcode norm. At 52 m² it's 17.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (63 m² median across 53 EPCs).

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 20 Armstrong Close is modelled from its 52 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WA3 6DH. 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 20 Armstrong Close. 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 20 Armstrong Close was lodged in May 2026 at band C and is valid until May 2036. 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 20 Armstrong Close. 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 16 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WA3 6DH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
20 Armstrong Close is in council tax band A. 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.
