Overview

About 2 Priory Cottage

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

2 Priory Cottage is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 1SQ). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2012 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 101), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 125.1% above the 2007 sale of £167,500.
