About 3 Sorby Way
3 Sorby Way is a two-bedroom detached house in Wickersley, Rotherham, Rotherham (S66 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 82 m² it's 29.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 10 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £278,000 sits 61.6% above the 2009 sale of £172,000.
