About 2 The Picture House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 The Picture House is a mid-terrace house in Carlisle (CA1 1SR). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. At 56 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in 2 The Picture House, where floor areas span 55–56 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (58 versus a best of 82). The latest certificate (May 2021) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since September 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £119,000 is 96.1% below the 2015 sale of £3,014,414, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 11 years ago, in October 2015.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 The Picture House is modelled from its 56 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CA1 1SR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 2 The Picture House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 The Picture House was lodged in May 2021 at band D and is valid until May 2031. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 2 The Picture House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CA1 1SR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 The Picture House is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
