28 Blackwell Place is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sheffield (S2 5PX). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 65 m² this is the 15th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–74 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in February 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.
Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Sale prices here have outpaced Sheffield HPI: 7.6% per year against 0% for the wider region. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 is 32.9% above the 2009 sale price.
