About Flat
Flat is a semi-detached house in Peterborough (PE1 1JA). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 110 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (38–110 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 17 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2018. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73).
Today's modelled estimate of £157,000 is 50.9% below the 2016 sale of £320,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. At 110 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Last sold in March 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
