Chatterthro is a four-bedroom detached house in Flamborough, Bridlington, Bridlington (YO15 1LW). It has a recorded floor area of 221 m² (around 2379 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since May 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good and lighting went from Average to Good; while main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 221 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 sits 63.2% above the 2007 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 16.3% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
