About Parkhurst

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

Parkhurst is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Buxton (SK17 6SG). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 106 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across Parkhurst (42–106 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (40 versus a best of 75). Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (April 2019) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 106 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 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.
