About 2 Astra Court

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

At 25 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in 2 Astra Court, where floor areas span 23–26 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom.

Held since July 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.
