Overview

About 8 Salem Hill

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

8 Salem Hill is a mid-terrace house in Sunderland (SR2 8HD). It has a recorded floor area of 188 m² (around 2024 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since January 2014. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since August 2007 — 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. Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 sits 73.2% above the 2007 sale of £71,000. At 188 m² it's 18.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (159 m² median across 9 EPCs).
