55, Barnwell, Peterborough, PE8 5PG
About 55
55 is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Barnwell, Peterborough, Peterborough (PE8 5PG). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1545 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 57), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 144 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£349/sq ft) was about 28.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused. Most recent transfer: July 2022 at £540,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
