About Bank House
Bank House is a detached house in King's Lynn (PE34 3LX). It has a recorded floor area of 250 m² (around 2691 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 28 years, with the last transfer in December 1997. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 250 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £487,000 sits 274.8% above the 1997 sale of £129,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£48/sq ft) was about 66.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
