About 5 Ancona Street
5 Ancona Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sunderland (SR4 6TJ). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2019) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 sits 58.6% above the 2008 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 148.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 45 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
