5 High Park, Stafford, ST16 1BL

5 High Park is a three-bedroom detached house in Stafford (ST16 1BL). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £324,000 sits 62% above the 2009 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£138/sq ft) was about 24.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2013. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs).
