How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5 Elm Road is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WA3 6LP. 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 5 Elm Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Elm Road is a semi-detached house in Rixton, Warrington, Warrington (WA3 6LP). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump.

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 5 Elm Road is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WA3 6LP. 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. No sale is recorded for 5 Elm Road, which usually means it hasn't changed hands since 1995 or the sale was not for value. 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 5 Elm Road was lodged in November 2014 at band E and expired in November 2024, 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. 1 application is matched to 5 Elm Road. 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 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WA3 6LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 5 Elm Road is in council tax band D. 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.
