About 40 Queens Road

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

40 Queens Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Barnsley (S71 1AR). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2014); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 40 Queens Road is modelled from its 97 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in S71 1AR. 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 40 Queens Road. 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 40 Queens Road was lodged in June 2016 at band E and expired in June 2026, 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. None is matched to 40 Queens Road. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from S71 1AR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
40 Queens Road is in council tax band B. 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.
