Overview

About 42 Stamford Street East

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

42 Stamford Street East is a mid-terrace house in York (YO26 4YD). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2013 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2014–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 66.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £221,000 sits 52.4% above the 2014 sale of £145,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£254/sq ft) was about 28.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in December 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
