Overview

About 138 Townhead Road

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

138 Townhead Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Sheffield (S17 3AQ). It has a recorded floor area of 194 m² (around 2088 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 194 m² it sits well below the postcode median (466 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £884,000 is 43.7% above the 2007 sale price.
