Overview

About 85 Front Street

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

85 Front Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Acomb, York, York (YO24 3BU). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Last sale on file: £240,000 in June 2021. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. At 76 m² it's 16.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 18 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £287,000 is 19.6% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£293/sq ft) was about 21.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
