About 2 Manor Cottages
2 Manor Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Swaithe, Barnsley, Barnsley (S70 3QF). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2018) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), 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. At 113 m² it's 24.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (150 m² median across 14 EPCs). Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £266,000 is 40% above the 2008 sale price.
