About 7 Barden Drive
7 Barden Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Barnsley (S75 2QT). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1274 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year.
