About Flat A
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat A is a semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR1 1SJ). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (May 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Today's modelled estimate of £325,000 is 29.7% below the 2004 sale of £462,500, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. Untraded for 22 years, with the last transfer in August 2004.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Flat A is modelled from its 80 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SR1 1SJ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Flat A. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Flat A was lodged in June 2026 at band C and is valid until June 2036. 6 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 6 applications are matched to Flat A. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SR1 1SJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
