About 18 Gainsford Road
18 Gainsford Road is a mid-terrace house in Sheffield (S9 4RJ). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £122,000 is 25.8% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£129/sq ft) was about 105.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 70 m² it's 26.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (95 m² median across 27 EPCs).
