About 11 Brookmill Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a C (score 70). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.

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 11 Brookmill Close is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD19 4BB. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 11 Brookmill 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 11 Brookmill Close was lodged in April 2015 at band C and expired in April 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 11 Brookmill 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point.

- 11 Brookmill Close is in council tax band E. 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.
