About 4 Belsay Gardens
4 Belsay Gardens is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR4 7SZ). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 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.
