About 2 Ham Cottages
2 Ham Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bosham, Chichester, Chichester (PO18 8EH). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 73 m² it sits well below the postcode median (138 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 is 48.3% above the 2007 sale price.
