Overview

About 6 The Square

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

6 The Square is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Birstwith, Harrogate, Harrogate (HG3 2NL). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 94 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sale on file: £372,500 in January 2022. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 2005–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£368/sq ft) was about 44.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2024.
