About 8a
8a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Brough (HU15 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since October 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 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 is 39% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£159/sq ft) was about 20.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
