About 68b

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

The latest certificate (November 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70).

Held since January 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £177,000 is 34.1% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£299/sq ft) was about 39.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 41 m² it's 21.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (52 m² median across 37 EPCs).
