Royal View is a semi-detached house in Elstead, Godalming, Godalming (GU8 6LA). It has a recorded floor area of 301 m² (around 3240 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 301 m² the property is well over the postcode median (130 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £1,961,000 is 30.7% above the 2019 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£463/sq ft) was about 65.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold July 2019 for £1,500,000.
