10 Dovecote Close, Peterborough, PE1 3TQ

10 Dovecote Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Peterborough (PE1 3TQ). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2014) 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 January 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2001 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £219,000 sits 182.6% above the 2001 sale of £77,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 45.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
