Flat 2, 8 Belvedere Road, Taunton, TA1 1BW
About Flat 2
Flat 2 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Taunton (TA1 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 30 m² (around 323 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 30 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (30–57 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 9 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on electricity.
Held since July 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £105,000 sits 57.3% above the 2009 sale of £66,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£207/sq ft) was about 21.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 30 m² it sits well below the postcode median (45 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
