About The Gate Lodge
The Gate Lodge is a detached house in Albrighton, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY4 3AG). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1028 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 23). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
