Overview

About 2 Green Spring Avenue

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

2 Green Spring Avenue is a two-bedroom detached house in Birdwell, Barnsley, Barnsley (S70 5RW). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £239,000 sits 50.3% above the 2016 sale of £159,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£246/sq ft) was about 18.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (91 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Last sold in June 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
