Overview

About 1 Dorset House

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

1 Dorset House is a detached house in York (YO24 4AF). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a C (score 72). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £162,000 is 43.4% above the 2009 sale price.
