25 Henley Rise, Shepton Mallet, BA4 4AW

25 Henley Rise is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Shepton Mallet (BA4 4AW). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in January 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Sale prices here have outpaced England HPI: 10.9% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £261,000 is 42.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£239/sq ft) was about 56.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (135 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
