1 Cawthorne Place, Harrogate, HG2 7QE

1 Cawthorne Place is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Harrogate (HG2 7QE). It has a recorded floor area of 3 m² (around 35 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 3 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (3–110 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (March 2011) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The latest certificate is from March 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 3 m² it sits well below the postcode median (94 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include subdivision and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £165,000 is 17.9% above the 2010 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£4,014/sq ft) was about 3295.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
