Overview

About 17 Hill Top Road

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

17 Hill Top Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Birdwell, Barnsley, Barnsley (S70 5QZ). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 20 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 £150,000 is 43.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£151/sq ft) was about 21.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
