About 2 Northolme Road

It has a recorded floor area of 171 m² (around 1845 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64).

Held since February 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 15 planning records sit against the property, 11 approved, 1 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include tree works, an extension and a basement excavation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £2,182,000 sits 174.5% above the 2006 sale of £795,000.
