Overview

About 17 Kingsway

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

17 Kingsway is a semi-detached house in Garforth, Leeds, Leeds (LS25 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 85 m² the property is well over the postcode median (65 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 sits 68.4% above the 2013 sale of £119,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 19.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
