Overview

About Tunstall House

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

Tunstall House is a detached house in Sunderland (SR3 1AS). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 sits 65.6% above the 2009 sale of £64,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£76/sq ft) was about 29.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 78 m² it's 22.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (64 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs).
