About 21 Smithy Croft
21 Smithy Croft is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Houghton, Carlisle, Carlisle (CA3 0NS). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 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 £251,000 is 18.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£226/sq ft) was about 18.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
