Apartment 4, 4 The Oval, Harrogate, HG2 9BA

Apartment 4 is a detached house in Harrogate (HG2 9BA). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2015. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £861,000 sits 73.9% above the 2007 sale of £495,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£297/sq ft) was about 18.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
