5 Shirewood Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Brampton Bierlow, Rotherham, Rotherham (S63 6BT). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £278,000 is 32.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£176/sq ft) was about 79.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
