About 18 Pool Road
18 Pool Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bristol (BS15 1XL). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2023) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good.

Held since March 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £305,000 sits 84.8% above the 2009 sale of £165,000. At 66 m² it's 29% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (93 m² median across 12 EPCs).
