2a, East Reach, Taunton, TA1 3EN
About 2a
2a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Taunton (TA1 3EN). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 77 m² this is the 12th smallest of 13 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–135 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include outbuildings. The latest certificate (April 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since July 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £175,000 sits 59.1% above the 2005 sale of £110,000. At 77 m² it's 21.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 12 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs).
