About 8 Ashton Common
8 Ashton Common is a detached house in Steeple Ashton, Trowbridge, Trowbridge (BA14 6DY). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 83% above the 2012 sale of £206,000. At 84 m² it sits well below the postcode median (173 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
