59a, Gloucester Road, Trowbridge, BA14 0AB
About 59a
59a is an end-of-terrace house in Trowbridge (BA14 0AB). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (January 2021) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). At 50 m² this is the 4th smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–121 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 16 units on file.
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 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 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2012. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £129,000 is 35.1% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£177/sq ft) was about 30.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
