Overview

About 42a

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

42a is an end-of-terrace house in Doncaster (DN1 2LX). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 51 m² this is the 14th smallest of 33 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 16–469 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 33 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2017) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home.

Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 29.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £183,000 is 16.8% below the 2007 sale of £220,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£401/sq ft) was about 528.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 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.
