About Apartment 8
Apartment 8 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Manchester (M1 5QG). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 388 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 36 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 37 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 35–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (September 2018) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 36 m² it sits well below the postcode median (54 m² across 36 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £150,000 is 11.1% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£348/sq ft) was about 17.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
