About Flat 21
Flat 21 is an end-of-terrace house in Manchester (M1 1BA). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. At 97 m² this is the 20th smallest of 22 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–110 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 22 units on file. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2001–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £275,000 is 27.6% below the 2023 sale of £380,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£364/sq ft) was about 89.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 97 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2014. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Last sale on file: £380,000 in July 2023.
