About The Firs

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

The Firs is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Green Hammerton, York, York (YO26 8BS). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1050 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 61). The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £358,000 is 43.2% above the 2011 sale price.
