2a, Beaconsfield Street, Carlisle, CA2 4AL
About 2a
2a is a semi-detached house in Carlisle (CA2 4AL). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2025) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2016. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).
It hasn't traded since January 2008, 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. Today's modelled estimate of £112,000 sits 113.3% above the 2008 sale of £52,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 18.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 48 m² it sits well below the postcode median (103 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
