About Parkhurst

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

Parkhurst is an end-of-terrace house in Buxton (SK17 6SG). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 42 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Parkhurst (42–106 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Across 2021–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 28.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £124,000 is 18.7% below the 2023 sale of £152,500, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£337/sq ft) was about 83.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (85 m² across 32 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sale on file: £152,500 in August 2023.
