About 23 Market Close

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

23 Market Close is a semi-detached house in Barnsley (S71 1DP). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump.
