About 6 Bench Road
6 Bench Road is an end-of-terrace house in Buxton (SK17 7PJ). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £190,000 sits 280% above the 1999 sale of £50,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£37/sq ft) was about 70.7% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused.
