The Old Chapel is a detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 1SF). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since June 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 150 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 79% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £358,000 sits 784% above the 1996 sale of £40,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£25/sq ft) was about 84.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
