Overview

About The Old Vicarage

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

The Old Vicarage is a detached house in Blackheath, Guildford, Guildford (GU4 8QT). It has a recorded floor area of 206 m² (around 2217 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in February 1996. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £1,359,000 sits 368.6% above the 1996 sale of £290,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 73.2% below the postcode norm. At 206 m² it's 27.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (162 m² median across 6 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
