About 2 Beech Grove
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Beech Grove is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Barnsley (S70 6NG). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2118 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £334,000 sits 65.3% above the 2015 sale of £202,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£95/sq ft) was about 26.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2010. Past consents include subdivision and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. On the market in January 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 12 years. At 197 m² it's 15.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (233 m² median across 8 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Beech Grove is modelled from its 197 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in S70 6NG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 2 Beech Grove. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Beech Grove was lodged in August 2011 at band E and expired in August 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2 Beech Grove. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S70 6NG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Beech Grove is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
