About The Mowbray
The Mowbray is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sunderland (SR1 1PS). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2022) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was C, 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 57 m² this is the 24th 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, with this unit at the top.
Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 is 17.1% below the 2008 sale of £140,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£228/sq ft) was about 19% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 78% of similar EPCs).
