21a is a mid-terrace house in Leeds (LS8 2AT). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. At 63 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (63–154 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top.

Today's modelled estimate of £167,000 is 72.2% below the 2022 sale of £600,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£885/sq ft) was about 772.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (96 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Sold August 2022 for £600,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2021.
