Overview

About 1 Abbeycroft

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

1 Abbeycroft is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Whalley, Clitheroe, Clitheroe (BB7 9TN). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (January 2020) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

Across 2009–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at -7.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £227,000 sits 51.3% above the 2013 sale of £150,000. 6 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (103 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On the market in October 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years.
