Overview

About 4 Almsford Road

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

4 Almsford Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Harrogate (HG2 8EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 169 m² (around 1819 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in May 2011 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2011–2024, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £610,000 is 12.2% below the 2024 sale of £695,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£382/sq ft) was about 36.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 169 m² the property is well over the postcode median (127 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It changed hands recently, sold December 2024 for £695,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
