About 16a
16a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Cawood, Selby, Selby (YO8 3TB). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since January 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £209,000 sits 294.3% above the 1997 sale of £53,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£71/sq ft) was about 54.1% below the postcode norm.
