About 31a
31a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU1 4DL). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75).
It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (115 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £260,000 is 33.3% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£394/sq ft) was about 31.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
