Overview

About 5 Castle Close

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

5 Castle Close is a semi-detached house in Cawood, Selby, Selby (YO8 3SY). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2000 — that's 26 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 126 m² the property is well over the postcode median (61 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £241,000 sits 871.8% above the 2000 sale of £24,800. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£18/sq ft) was about 87.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
