Overview

About 2a

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

2a is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Manchester (M20 2NH). It has a recorded floor area of 216 m² (around 2323 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 216 m² the property is well over the postcode median (65 m² across 69 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Across 2002–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £710,000 sits 51.3% above the 2012 sale of £469,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£202/sq ft) was about 17.5% below the postcode norm. Last sold in May 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
