Overview

About 1 Bruce Avenue

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

1 Bruce Avenue is a semi-detached house in Barnsley (S70 4DZ). 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 (March 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since December 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 2002, a hold of 24 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £136,000 sits 403.7% above the 2002 sale of £27,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£36/sq ft) was about 66.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2006.
