About 2a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Lincoln (LN2 1QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 67 m² this is the 5th smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–253 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe and a basement. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Sale prices here have outpaced Lincoln HPI: 18.3% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £258,000 is 12.4% below the 2007 sale of £294,500, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£408/sq ft) was about 149.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since November 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 67 m² it's 23% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (87 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs).
