Temple Lodge, Cromwell Road, Basingstoke, RG21 5NR
About Temple Lodge
Temple Lodge is a detached house in Basingstoke (RG21 5NR). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since January 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £289,000 sits 256.8% above the 1999 sale of £81,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£134/sq ft) was about 37.5% below the postcode norm. At 56 m² it sits well below the postcode median (109 m² across 35 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.
