85a, Haigh Lane, Haigh, Barnsley, S75 4DA

85a is a four-bedroom detached house in Haigh, Barnsley, Barnsley (S75 4DA). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 1999, a hold of 27 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 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 34 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £285,000 sits 282.6% above the 1999 sale of £74,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£66/sq ft) was about 48.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
