About 1 California Terrace
1 California Terrace is a semi-detached house in Barnsley (S70 1YP). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 661 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 sits 80% above the 2009 sale of £70,000. At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (89 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
