Overview

About York Place

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

York Place is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Bideford (EX39 3LA). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. At 67 m² this is the 6th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in York Place, where floor areas span 50–161 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 14 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2022) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).

It hasn't traded since June 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. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 is 12.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 52.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. At 67 m² it's 17.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (82 m² median across 20 EPCs).
