About Swaby Lodge
Swaby Lodge is a detached house in Swaby, Alford, Alford (LN13 0BB). It has a recorded floor area of 157 m² (around 1687 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 157 m² it's 23.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (127 m² median across 4 EPCs). Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £405,000 is 30.6% above the 2009 sale price.
