About High Fold Barn
High Fold Barn is a detached house in Orton, Penrith, Penrith (CA10 3RX). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£244/sq ft) was about 20.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
