Overview

About 51c

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

51c is a three-bedroom detached house in Shrewsbury (SY2 5BW). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 96 m² it's 20% larger than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 5 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £274,000 is 48.9% above the 2017 sale price.
