About 38 Kingsway
38 Kingsway is a semi-detached house in Manchester (M19 2DD). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 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. Today's modelled estimate of £345,000 sits 245% above the 2007 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 29.9% below the postcode norm. At 129 m² it's 21.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (106 m² median across 19 EPCs).
