Overview

About 5 Buckingham Court

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

5 Buckingham Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in York (YO1 6EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1983-1990. At 52 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 49–113 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (80 versus a worst of 47). The latest certificate (January 2025) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while main heating dropped from Very Good to Good.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
