7 Briar Close, Frome, BA11 2UU
About 7 Briar Close
7 Briar Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Frome (BA11 2UU). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89). The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 91 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 65.9% above the 2007 sale of £152,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£156/sq ft) was about 22.8% below the postcode norm.
