About 3 Askern Avenue
3 Askern Avenue is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR2 9SJ). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2025) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since August 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £197,000 sits 271.7% above the 1997 sale of £53,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 50.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
