3 Quicksie Hill, Arkesden, Saffron Walden, CB11 4HE

3 Quicksie Hill is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Arkesden, Saffron Walden, Saffron Walden (CB11 4HE). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 149 m² the property is well over the postcode median (107 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £526,000 sits 508.1% above the 1997 sale of £86,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£54/sq ft) was about 79.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2009. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
