About 16 Wear Street
16 Wear Street is a semi-detached house in South Hylton, Sunderland, Sunderland (SR4 0QH). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump.

Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £156,000 sits 173.7% above the 2001 sale of £57,000.
