About 8 Alfred Street
8 Alfred Street is a mid-terrace house in Shrewsbury (SY2 5EX). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1026 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 61). The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2007–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -6.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 sits 57.9% above the 2009 sale of £190,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
