Overview

About 2 Home Barns Cottages

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

2 Home Barns Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Astley, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY4 4BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Held since February 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 86 m² it sits well below the postcode median (191 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £347,000 is 30.9% above the 2010 sale price.
