Overview

About Flat 5

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

Flat 5 is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in York (YO1 6ET). It has a recorded floor area of 20 m² (around 215 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 20 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (20–25 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 6 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2018) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since April 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. At 20 m² it sits well below the postcode median (52 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £139,000 is 34.9% above the 2009 sale price.

Valuation method in detail

How the estimate is made: The estimate for Flat 5 is modelled from its 20 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in YO1 6ET. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Flat 5. 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 Flat 5 was lodged in July 2018 at band D and is valid until July 2028. 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 Flat 5. 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 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from YO1 6ET, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band: Flat 5 is in council tax band A. 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.
