About 4 Goodenber Road
4 Goodenber Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bentham, Lancaster, Lancaster (LA2 7JD). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 931 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £301,000 is 20.4% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£268/sq ft) was about 145.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 4 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 3 refused. At 87 m² it's 24.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (115 m² median across 19 EPCs).
