Overview

About 42 Marsh Lane

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

42 Marsh Lane is a two-bedroom detached house in Penkridge, Stafford, Stafford (ST19 5BP). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2021) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Other recorded features include a conservatory and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since August 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £385,000 sits 211.7% above the 1999 sale of £123,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£115/sq ft) was about 32.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
