About 18 Downham Road
18 Downham Road is a three-bedroom detached house in King's Lynn (PE33 0HS). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows a D (score 59), 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 August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1997, a hold of 29 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. Today's modelled estimate of £262,000 sits 336.7% above the 1997 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£57/sq ft) was about 50.5% below the postcode norm. At 97 m² it sits well below the postcode median (147 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
