Overview

About 388a

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

388a is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sheffield (S11 8ZP). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 54 m² this is the 11th smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 30–132 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (August 2022) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor.

It hasn't traded since October 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Across 2008–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£287/sq ft) was about 73.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
