Overview

About The Old Rectory

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

The Old Rectory is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Claughton, Lancaster, Lancaster (LA2 9LA). It has a recorded floor area of 221 m² (around 2380 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 43). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 221 m² the property is well over the postcode median (138 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 14 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 7 refused. Past consents include an extension, partial demolition and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2007–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at -1.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £732,000 is 22.8% above the 2010 sale price.
