Overview

About 4 Low Mill

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

4 Low Mill is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Caton, Lancaster, Lancaster (LA2 9HY). It has a recorded floor area of 195 m² (around 2099 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 195 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.4% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£202/sq ft) was about 31.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: tree works refused in 2018. Last sale on file: £425,000 in December 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
