Lower House is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Filton, Bristol, Bristol (BS34 7DA). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 33 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Lower House (33–62 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (39 versus a best of 80). Other recorded features include a loft. The latest certificate (January 2024) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 66). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (61 m² across 27 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). Today's modelled estimate of £168,000 is 24.4% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£380/sq ft) was about 55.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
