Overview

About 7 Tensing Road

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

7 Tensing Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Scunthorpe (DN16 3DY). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £122,000 sits 52.6% above the 2021 sale of £79,950. Sold April 2021 for £79,950. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
