9 Algarth Rise, York, YO31 1HD

9 Algarth Rise is a three-bedroom detached house in York (YO31 1HD). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 774 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 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 £375,000 sits 64.5% above the 2009 sale of £228,000. At 72 m² it sits well below the postcode median (107 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
