About Flat
Flat is a semi-detached house in Windermere (LA23 1AD). It has a recorded floor area of 25 m² (around 269 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (June 2019) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since June 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £197,000 sits 87.6% above the 2007 sale of £105,000. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2020. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
