About 25 Hopwood Street
25 Hopwood Street is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Barnsley (S70 2BS). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since October 2012. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.
