Overview

About 4 Brassey House

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

4 Brassey House is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Shrewsbury (SY1 2DH). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the 6th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 34–55 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a C (score 70). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. 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 73% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.7% per year.
