9 Burford Lea is a detached house in Elstead, Godalming, Godalming (GU8 6HT). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 819 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (April 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). Main heating runs on house coal. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 76 m² it sits well below the postcode median (138 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £675,000 sits 50% above the 2010 sale of £450,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2013.
