About 18 Barbary Drive
18 Barbary Drive is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sunderland (SR6 0RB). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 2008 — that's 18 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. Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £228,000 is 24.6% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£205/sq ft) was about 49.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
