8 Warden Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Presteigne (LD8 2DH). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87). The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
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. Today's modelled estimate of £249,000 sits 66.1% above the 2009 sale of £149,950. At 65 m² it's 18.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 33 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs).
