About 8 Braithwaite Way
8 Braithwaite Way is a three-bedroom detached house in Frome (BA11 2XG). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 982 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
