About 8 Brown Street
8 Brown Street is a mid-terrace house in Rotherham (S60 1JX). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in June 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £120,000 sits 100% above the 2017 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£72/sq ft) was about 66.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 77 m² it sits well below the postcode median (142 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in May 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
