Overview

About The Hirsel

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

The Hirsel is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Batheaston, Bath, Bath (BA1 7RL). It has a recorded floor area of 235 m² (around 2530 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony and a self-contained annexe.

At 235 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £554,000 is 19.8% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£183/sq ft) was about 29.3% below the postcode norm. Last sold in December 2014, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
