Overview

About Arkwrights Mill

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

Arkwrights Mill is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cressbrook, Buxton, Buxton (SK17 8SA). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. At 149 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across Arkwrights Mill (143–149 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (61 versus a best of 78). The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 149 m² it's 29.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (115 m² median across 17 EPCs). Last sold in January 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. Today's modelled estimate of £346,000 is 28.1% above the 2017 sale price.
