Overview

About 18 Church Lane

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

18 Church Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Bicknoller, Taunton, Taunton (TA4 4EL). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.

At 166 m² the property is well over the postcode median (117 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Sold April 2022 for £470,000. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. Across 2003–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.9% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£263/sq ft) was about 35.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
