Overview

About 16 Berkeley Croft

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

16 Berkeley Croft is a semi-detached house in Royston, Barnsley, Barnsley (S71 4SJ). It has a recorded floor area of 111 m² (around 1195 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a C (score 70). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 111 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £193,000 is 39.9% above the 2009 sale price.
