Overview

About 81a

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

81a is an end-of-terrace house in Somersham, Huntingdon, Huntingdon (PE28 3JB). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2022) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor.

Today's modelled estimate of £122,000 is 44.5% below the 2022 sale of £220,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 70.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 83 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 43 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Sold April 2022 for £220,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
