Overview

About 44 Somerset Cottages

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

44 Somerset Cottages is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Sunderland (SR3 1BX). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2016) shows a D (score 63), 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. The home occupies a corner plot.

At 120 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 is 44.7% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£66/sq ft) was about 21.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
