Flat 1, 1 Merchants Court, Bingley, BD16 1DL
About Flat 1
Flat 1 is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bingley (BD16 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). Main heating runs on electricity. At 60 m² this is the 11th smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 54–67 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 16 units on file.
Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at -3.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £114,000 is 12.3% below the 2007 sale of £129,950, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. 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.
