Local market context
Barn Cottage is an end-of-terrace house in King's Lynn (PE31 8HA). It has a recorded floor area of 203 m² (around 2185 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a G (score 12), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
At 203 m² the property is well over the postcode median (127 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £787,000 sits 72.3% above the 2021 sale of £456,783. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£209/sq ft) was about 42.7% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sale on file: £456,783 in August 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
Barn Cottage's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
