Ashlea is a two-bedroom detached house in Ottringham, Hull, Hull (HU12 0DS). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Held since February 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. At 77 m² it sits well below the postcode median (143 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 is 28.7% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£189/sq ft) was about 34.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2014.
