Overview

About The Old Post House

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

The Old Post House is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 2AX). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 147 m² it's 15.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (127 m² median across 8 EPCs). Across 1996–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £374,000 is 46.7% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£161/sq ft) was about 23.7% below the postcode norm. Last sold in April 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
