28 Riverside Mews, Espleys Yard, Stafford, ST16 2BS

28 Riverside Mews is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Stafford (ST16 2BS). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2012) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 45 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–90 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top.

Today's modelled estimate of £107,000 is 27.2% below the 2007 sale of £147,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£303/sq ft) was about 30.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 45 m² it's 24.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (60 m² median across 32 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs).
