About 16 Elm Crescent
16 Elm Crescent is a semi-detached house in Bentley, Doncaster, Doncaster (DN5 0PZ). It has a recorded floor area of 186 m² (around 2002 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since July 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in November 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
