About 12 Merchants Quay
12 Merchants Quay is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Leeds (LS9 8BA). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. At 83 m² this is the 55th smallest of 62 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 11–157 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 62 units on file. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
