Overview

About 16 Church Approach

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

16 Church Approach is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Garforth, Leeds, Leeds (LS25 1JD). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since April 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across 1998–2000, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £196,000 sits 296% above the 2000 sale of £49,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£59/sq ft) was about 56.6% below the postcode norm.
