Overview

About 2 Cromwell House

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

2 Cromwell House is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in York (YO1 6DU). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1028 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a G (score 13), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2009); the latest reading is 3 bands lower. Between certificates, main heating went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 31). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 96 m² the property is well over the postcode median (57 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2004–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 0.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £337,000 sits 82.2% above the 2014 sale of £185,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£180/sq ft) was about 31.3% below the postcode norm. Last sold in October 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Cromwell House is modelled from its 96 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in YO1 6DU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Cromwell House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Cromwell House was lodged in January 2009 at band G and expired in January 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 2 Cromwell House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from YO1 6DU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Cromwell House is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
