40 Castle Road is a detached house in Presteigne (LD8 2EB). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2022) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81).
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 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. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 sits 63.4% above the 2008 sale of £153,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
