About 5 Briar Rise
5 Briar Rise is a two-bedroom detached house in Worsbrough, Barnsley, Barnsley (S70 5JR). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 992 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
