Overview

About 8 Becklake Close

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

8 Becklake Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Roundswell, Barnstaple, Barnstaple (EX31 3UZ). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 1999–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £311,000 is 48.1% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£238/sq ft) was about 116.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
