About Spring House

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

Spring House is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Horfield, Bristol, Bristol (BS7 0QH). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 61 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 5 units on EPC record in Spring House, where floor areas span 31–107 m². The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a C (score 71).

Held since April 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 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include subdivision, change of use to residential and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £255,000 is 44.6% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£269/sq ft) was about 121.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
