Overview

About 217 Doncaster Road

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

217 Doncaster Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Barnsley (S70 3QY). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in July 2013 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 sits 71.6% above the 2006 sale of £77,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£103/sq ft) was about 18.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
