Overview

About The Old Chapel

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

The Old Chapel is a two-bedroom detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 1QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 160 m² the property is well over the postcode median (102 m² across 34 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £445,000 is 11.3% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 36% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £400,000 in March 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
