About Flat 1
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 1 is a two-bedroom detached house in Salford (M7 1NQ). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. At 59 m² this is the 11th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (66 versus a best of 81). The latest certificate (June 2020) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (April 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.
It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 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 59 m² it sits well below the postcode median (92 m² across 31 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £169,000 is 15% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£231/sq ft) was about 50.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
