Minster Apartments is an end-of-terrace house in Lincoln (LN2 1NS). It has a recorded floor area of 31 m² (around 334 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 31 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 6 units on EPC record in Minster Apartments, where floor areas span 20–68 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 is 31.4% below the 2014 sale of £175,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£524/sq ft) was about 278.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 31 m² it sits well below the postcode median (96 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: a basement excavation approved in 2015. Past consents include a basement excavation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in November 2014.
