27b, Mansfield Road, Sheffield, S12 2AE

27b is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sheffield (S12 2AE). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 572 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2011) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony.

It hasn't traded since July 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 11 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £113,000 sits 352% above the 1998 sale of £25,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£44/sq ft) was about 61.9% below the postcode norm.
