160a, Barton Street, Gloucester, GL1 4EN
About 160a
160a is an end-of-terrace house in Gloucester (GL1 4EN). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 92 m² this is the 22nd smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–161 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (February 2017) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump.
Today's modelled estimate of £131,000 is 20.6% below the 2017 sale of £165,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. At 92 m² the property is well over the postcode median (44 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: HMO conversion approved in 2018. Past consents include HMO conversion and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
