Overview

About 1 Oak Street

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

1 Oak Street is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Croft, Warrington, Warrington (WA3 7HH). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 128 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £245,000 is 41.6% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£126/sq ft) was about 19.8% below the postcode norm. Last sold in December 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.

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 1 Oak Street is modelled from its 128 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WA3 7HH. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 1 Oak Street. 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 1 Oak Street was lodged in May 2014 at band D and expired in May 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 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 1 Oak Street. 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 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WA3 7HH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Oak Street 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.
