29 Arbory Avenue, Manchester, M40 5HF

29 Arbory Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Manchester (M40 5HF). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £182,000 sits 191.2% above the 2009 sale of £62,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£80/sq ft) was about 35.9% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 72% of similar EPCs).
