About 3 The Firs
3 The Firs is a detached house in Baschurch, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY4 2EW). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1376 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1983-1990. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 50), 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 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 1995, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £381,000 sits 314.1% above the 1995 sale of £92,000.
