Overview

About 1 California Terrace

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

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 £122,000 sits 74.3% above the 2009 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£106/sq ft) was about 33.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 California Terrace is modelled from its 61 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in S70 1YP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 California Terrace. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 California Terrace was lodged in March 2009 at band D and expired in March 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 California Terrace. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S70 1YP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 California Terrace is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
