Overview

About Lock House

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

Lock House is a detached house in Colwich, Stafford, Stafford (ST17 0XD). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2012) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since September 2008. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £303,000 sits 142.4% above the 2013 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£137/sq ft) was about 45.3% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). On the market in March 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
