Overview

About 3 Riverside Place

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

3 Riverside Place is an end-of-terrace house in Taunton (TA1 1JH). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 69 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (69–111 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (68 versus a best of 72). The latest certificate (April 2024) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (April 2024); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

Today's modelled estimate of £181,000 is 27.5% below the 2024 sale of £249,700, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.
