Overview

About 23 Towngate

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

23 Towngate is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Silkstone, Barnsley, Barnsley (S75 4SW). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Untraded for 28 years, with the last transfer in February 1998. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £201,000 sits 302% above the 1998 sale of £50,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 58.6% below the postcode norm.
