About 3 Lilac Avenue
3 Lilac Avenue is a semi-detached house in New Silksworth, Sunderland, Sunderland (SR3 1DP). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 2000, a hold of 26 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. At 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £145,000 sits 266.4% above the 2000 sale of £39,575. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£28/sq ft) was about 73.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
