About Langthwaite
Langthwaite is a detached house in Grasmere, Ambleside, Ambleside (LA22 9PX). It has a recorded floor area of 210 m² (around 2261 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 1999–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £825,000 is 27.9% below the 2016 sale of £1,144,600, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. At 210 m² the property is well over the postcode median (128 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
