Overview

About 2 Staples Hill

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

2 Staples Hill is a two-bedroom detached house in Freshford, Bath, Bath (BA2 7WL). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 626 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows a G (score 17), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since April 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on bottled lpg. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (112 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
