Overview

About 31 Riverside Mews

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

31 Riverside Mews is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Stafford (ST16 2BS). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2021) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The rating has held steady at B across 3 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. At 62 m² this is the 25th 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 £118,000 is 23.9% below the 2007 sale of £155,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs).
