About 42 Bank Street
42 Bank Street is a mid-terrace house in Sheffield (S1 2DS). It has a recorded floor area of 148 m² (around 1593 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 148 m² the property is well over the postcode median (52 m² across 39 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2005–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at -16.1% per year.

Past consents include an extension, a basement excavation and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Most recent transfer: December 2021 at £10,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
