About 55b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
55b is a detached house in Scarborough (YO12 4AP). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 49 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (49–155 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 26 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2025) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2015. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73).
Today's modelled estimate of £156,000 is 11.4% below the 2008 sale of £176,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£334/sq ft) was about 227% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since April 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. At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (94 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
