About 21 Shirley Road
21 Shirley Road is a mid-terrace house in Doncaster (DN4 0DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 37 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (37–103 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (31 versus a best of 74). The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in December 2015 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 2006 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 37 m² it sits well below the postcode median (77 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2005–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 19.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 sits 103.7% above the 2006 sale of £54,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 127.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2006. Past consents include subdivision and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
