Overview

About 8a

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

8a is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Pontesbury, Shrewsbury, Shrewsbury (SY5 0RR). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2015) returns a high B (score 87), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 1999–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £241,000 is 41.8% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£172/sq ft) was about 17.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
