Local market context
The Hollies is a four-bedroom detached house in Huby, York, York (YO61 1HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 244 m² (around 2626 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2020) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
At 244 m² the property is well over the postcode median (145 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £964,000 is 22.8% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£299/sq ft) was about 38.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: December 2021 at £785,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2026.
The Hollies's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
