1 Atherton Lane, Totnes, TQ9 5RT
About 1 Atherton Lane
1 Atherton Lane is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Totnes (TQ9 5RT). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £205,000 sits 355.6% above the 1997 sale of £45,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£84/sq ft) was about 66% below the postcode norm. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (102 m² across 4 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
