Overview

About Flat 5

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

Flat 5 is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Harrogate (HG2 0AT). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 63 m² this is the 6th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–134 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 9 units on file. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

At 63 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 £245,000 is 28.9% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£280/sq ft) was about 36.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
