About 26 Keir Street
26 Keir Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Barnsley (S70 2PA). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2022) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since October 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 sits 100% above the 2008 sale of £57,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£64/sq ft) was about 30.8% below the postcode norm. At 84 m² it's 26.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (66 m² median across 36 EPCs).
