About 6 Poplar Road
6 Poplar Road is a mid-terrace house in Speedwell, Bristol, Bristol (BS5 7TP). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since December 2007, 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 83 m² the property is well over the postcode median (63 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 79% of similar EPCs). Across 2007–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £274,000 sits 144.6% above the 2007 sale of £112,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 36.9% below the postcode norm.
