1 Barden Drive, Barnsley, S75 2QT
About 1 Barden Drive
1 Barden Drive is a one-bedroom detached house in Barnsley (S75 2QT). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since January 1996, a hold of 31 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 128 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £277,000 sits 365.5% above the 1996 sale of £59,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£43/sq ft) was about 72.5% below the postcode norm.
