Overview

About 6b

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

6b is a semi-detached house in Saffron Walden (CB11 3EA). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (September 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 106 m² this is the 4th smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 80–481 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D across 16 units on file.

It hasn't traded since April 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £286,000 sits 225% above the 2001 sale of £88,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 75.8% below the postcode norm. At 106 m² it sits well below the postcode median (178 m² across 15 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
