About 1 St James Court
1 St James Court is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Marshland St. James, Wisbech, Wisbech (PE14 8ES). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 602 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (105 m² across 46 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £101,000 is 48.5% above the 2008 sale price.
