Overview

About 48 Lortas Road

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

48 Lortas Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Nottingham (NG5 1EH). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 2003, a hold of 23 years that's notably long for the area. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £217,000 sits 167.9% above the 2003 sale of £81,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£99/sq ft) was about 41.7% below the postcode norm.
