2 Caxton Road, Frome, BA11 1NE
About 2 Caxton Road
2 Caxton Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Frome (BA11 1NE). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The property has solar panels and an EV charger on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 85 m² it sits well below the postcode median (128 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £334,000 sits 106.2% above the 2015 sale of £162,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£177/sq ft) was about 44.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in April 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
