About Flat 2
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 2 is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Harrogate (HG2 0AT). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 33 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (33–134 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 9 units on file. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2011 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (110 m² across 35 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £151,000 is 16.2% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£366/sq ft) was about 73.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in July 2016.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Flat 2 is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HG2 0AT. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Flat 2. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Flat 2 was lodged in September 2015 at band D and expired in September 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 2. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 17 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HG2 0AT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 2 is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
