About 3 Bridge Street
3 Bridge Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Barnsley (S71 1PL). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 549 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in November 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £101,000 is 36.5% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£135/sq ft) was about 61.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
