1b, Clifton Road, Newbury, RG14 5JS
About 1b
1b is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Newbury (RG14 5JS). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 66 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 64–135 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 12 units on file. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (107 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 1998–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £190,000 is 41.8% above the 2005 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£189/sq ft) was about 28.2% below the postcode norm.
