Overview

About 16 John Walker House

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

16 John Walker House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in York (YO1 9SX). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. At 90 m² this is the 19th smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 74–165 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (April 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £274,000 is 23.3% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£229/sq ft) was about 23.5% below the postcode norm.
