Overview

About 8 Catchpenny Lane

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Catchpenny Lane is a semi-detached house in Lower Withington, Macclesfield, Macclesfield (SK11 9DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 97), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 72 m² it's 18.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £338,000 is 45.4% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£300/sq ft) was about 32.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
