Overview

About 65 Barkston Avenue

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

65 Barkston Avenue is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in York (YO26 5BA). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (39–96 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 39 m² it sits well below the postcode median (76 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £134,000 is 44.9% above the 2014 sale price.
