About 6 Bedford Place
6 Bedford Place is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR3 1LA). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.
At 149 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in November 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
