Overview

About 8 Abbots Road

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

8 Abbots Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Carlisle (CA2 5PZ). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (January 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since March 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£70/sq ft) was about 46.1% below the postcode norm.
