Overview

About Frost Street Farmhouse

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

Frost Street Farmhouse is a detached house in Thurlbear, Taunton, Taunton (TA3 5BA). It has a recorded floor area of 248 m² (around 2669 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 248 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £718,000 sits 68.9% above the 2012 sale of £425,000. Last sold in February 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
