Overview

About 8a

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

8a is an end-of-terrace house in Wilsden, Bradford, Bradford (BD15 0LU). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (April 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2005, a hold of 21 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1995–2005, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 sits 52.9% above the 2005 sale of £87,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£202/sq ft) was about 22% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (70 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2006.
