About 18 The Poplars

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

18 The Poplars is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bluntisham, Huntingdon, Huntingdon (PE28 3XJ). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 1995–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 is 45% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£303/sq ft) was about 56.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in August 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
