About 27 George Street
27 George Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Barnsley (S70 1AX). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (May 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 64 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £109,000 sits 75.8% above the 2015 sale of £62,000. Last sold in November 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. One planning record on file: a loft conversion refused in 2010.
