Overview

About 1 The Old Smithy

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

1 The Old Smithy is a three-bedroom detached house in King's Lynn (PE32 2LL). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2012 onwards. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a C (score 70). Earlier certificates rated it B (June 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 2015–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 55.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £391,000 is 37.2% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 50.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
