About 16 Benbow Quay
16 Benbow Quay is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Shrewsbury (SY1 2DL). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2024 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since May 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. At 75 m² it's 29.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (58 m² median across 89 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 is 17.6% above the 2007 sale price.
