About 10 Cheapside

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

10 Cheapside is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Lower Bentham, Lancaster, Lancaster (LA2 7EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 179 m² (around 1922 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows a C (score 73). The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since June 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. At 179 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £305,000 sits 154.2% above the 2005 sale of £120,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£62/sq ft) was about 70.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
