9 James Street, Barnsley, S71 1BL
About 9 James Street
9 James Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Barnsley (S71 1BL). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 553 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows a C (score 72). The latest certificate is from March 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 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 £109,000 sits 73% above the 2007 sale of £63,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 45.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 51 m² it's 17.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (63 m² median across 42 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs).
