8 Popes Cross is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Curry Mallet, Taunton, Taunton (TA3 6SS).

The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an F (score 23), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 50). 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. At 99 m² it's 18.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (84 m² median across 14 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £248,000 is 41.7% above the 2009 sale price.
