Overview

About 6 Foyle Street

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

6 Foyle Street is a detached house in Sunderland (SR1 1LB). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in April 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).

Held since October 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
