About 8 Fort Street
8 Fort Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Clitheroe (BB7 1BY). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump.
Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 67 m² it's 25.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £142,000 is 35.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£146/sq ft) was about 28.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
