About 18 Hanover Square
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
18 Hanover Square is a mid-terrace house in Bradford (BD1 3BY). It has a recorded floor area of 205 m² (around 2207 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C.

When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since.

The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 18 Hanover Square is modelled from its 205 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BD1 3BY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 18 Hanover Square. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 18 Hanover Square was lodged in July 2016 at band E and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 18 Hanover Square. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 64 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BD1 3BY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 18 Hanover Square is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
