23 Meadow Close is a semi-detached house in Stoney Middleton, Hope Valley, Hope Valley (S32 4TQ). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1184 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 97), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 110 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£63/sq ft) was about 68.4% below the postcode norm.
