Overview

About 1 Douglas Way

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

1 Douglas Way is a four-bedroom detached house in Bicton Heath, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY3 5PB). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 1 refused, 1 pending. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 43.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
