About 15 Rydal Terrace
15 Rydal Terrace is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Barnsley (S71 1EP). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 91 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 2012–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 44.4% per year.
