About 34 Downend Road
34 Downend Road is a mid-terrace house in Horfield, Bristol, Bristol (BS7 9PF). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (79 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £456,000 sits 365.5% above the 2001 sale of £97,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 60.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
