About 2 Bence Lane

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

2 Bence Lane is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Darton, Barnsley, Barnsley (S75 5NX). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1035 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
