Overview

About Old Post Office

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

Old Post Office is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Lodsworth, Petworth, Petworth (GU28 9BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1386 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows a G (score 17), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in August 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 7 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for new windows is awaiting a decision. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £757,000 sits 51.4% above the 2008 sale of £500,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£361/sq ft) was about 25.3% below the postcode norm. At 129 m² it's 15.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (153 m² median across 7 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs).
