14 Frome Road, Trowbridge, BA14 0DA

14 Frome Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Trowbridge (BA14 0DA). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since August 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 162 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £418,000 sits 488.7% above the 1996 sale of £71,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£41/sq ft) was about 71% below the postcode norm.
