How the estimate is made

The estimate for Croftside is modelled from its 148 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WA4 4SH. 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.

    Outcome in report

    Section 191 Certificate - Croftside is a residential detached bungalow - its previous owners purchased agricultural land from the neighbouring farm (Manor Farm) in 1993, which was immediately incorporated as part of the existing garden and since been continuously maintained and utilised as garden within the residential curtilage of Croftside. The land is mainly lawned with flower beds. The previous owners planted trees, creating a relatively small wooded area which we confirm has been used as garden along with the areas that have been historically (and currently) lawned. The wooded area has never been fenced off and our children continue to enjoy it as garden; building dens, playing hide and seek and such like. As the whole of the additional land has been used as residential garden curtilage for a period of over 22 years (i.e. over 10 years), for peace of mind, we would like to gain the following: 1. A LDC from the council to recognise the lands present use as a garden, PLUS 2. Written confirmation from the council that for all intents and purposes the "residential curtilage" of Croftside is now considered to be the whole of the land as marked in red on the attached Land Registry plan.

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 Croftside is modelled from its 148 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WA4 4SH. 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 Croftside, 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 Croftside was lodged in September 2014 at band F and expired in September 2024, 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. 3 applications are matched to Croftside. 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WA4 4SH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Croftside 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.
