Overview

About 17 Fordham Road

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

17 Fordham Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR4 0AX). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 899 sq ft) and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows a C (score 71). The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.

Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
