About 5 Gibson House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Gibson House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in York (YO1 9SG). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. At 61 m² this is the 7th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 43–69 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 61 m² the property is well over the postcode median (46 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £218,000 is 28.2% above the 2007 sale price.

- 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 5 Gibson House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
