About 4 Beechways
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
4 Beechways is a four-bedroom detached house in Appleton, Warrington, Warrington (WA4 5EL). It has a recorded floor area of 188 m² (around 2024 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot.
On the market in January 2018 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years. Across 2012–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £629,000 is 39.8% above the 2018 sale price. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2017.

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 4 Beechways is modelled from its 188 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WA4 5EL. 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 4 Beechways. 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 4 Beechways was lodged in August 2015 at band D and expired in August 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. 1 application is matched to 4 Beechways. 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 11 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WA4 5EL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 4 Beechways 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.
