The Mowbray, Flat 1, Borough Road, Sunderland, SR1 1PS
About The Mowbray
The Mowbray is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR1 1PS). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Average to Very Good. Main heating runs on electricity. At 79 m² this is the 36th smallest of 37 units on EPC record in The Mowbray, where floor areas span 33–106 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 37 units on file.
Today's modelled estimate of £112,000 is 13.8% below the 2008 sale of £130,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£153/sq ft) was about 26.6% below the postcode norm. Held since February 2008 — that's 19 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. At 79 m² the property is well over the postcode median (53 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
